Juventus vs Sassuolo Predictions

• Juventus have won three of their last five Serie A home games to nil
• Sassuolo failed to score in five of their last six losses
• The visitors have won only two of their last eight away games 

Old Lady look set for another easy victory

Having been knocked out of both the Coppa Italia and Champions League far earlier than they would have liked, achieving a top-four finish in Serie A is the only way Juventus can salvage a pretty poor season by their standards. 

The appointment of excellent manager Luciano Spalletti had the Old Lady cruising towards that goal but a run of four Serie A games without a win saw them drop away slightly. 

However, Spalletti has his side back on track now, leading Juve to a 4-0 rout of Pisa and 1-0 victory at Udinese in their last two matches to start the round one point behind fourth-placed Como, and it should be similarly plain-sailing against Sassuolo.  

Sassuolo set for another disappointing defeat

Admittedly, Saturday’s visitors are better than Pisa and Udinese, and look on track for a top-half finish, but Juve’s motivation to finish in the Champions League spots makes them a dangerous proposition right now. 

Despite missing a number of key men, including Francisco Conceicao and Lloyd Kelly, Juventus thrashed Sassuolo 3-0 in the reverse fixture, so an even fitter side should have no issue putting in a similarly dominant display on Saturday.
