Sassuolo vs Venezia Predictions

• Sassuolo hasn’t seen three or more goals in any of their home games this season.
• Venezia have failed to score in three of their five away games this season and have conceded in all of them.

Sassuolo to squeeze past Venezia

These two sides come into this one on the same number of points and only being separated by goals different in what should be a close game.

The hosts are coming off the back of a 2-2 draw away to strugglers Genoa and will be disappointed to have not beaten a Genoa side who have the second-worst defence in the division.

Visitors Venezia had a fantastic result on Monday night as they inflicted a 1-0 defeat onto European spot chasing Fiorentina at the Pier Luigi Penzo Stadium. Vincenzo Italiano’s side did not respond well and mustered just two shots on target in the entire game. To make matters worse, Riccardo Sottil was booked twice in the space of eight minutes and was sent for an early bath as his side dropped three valuable points.

The hosts home games are always tight affairs and they are not the entertainers from a few seasons ago. Sassuolo hasn’t seen three or more goals in any of their home games this season, they’ve struggled to finish chances and only beat Salernitana 1-0, despite Salernitana shipping an average of 2.1 goals per game.

It’s highly unlikely that Venezia makes it two wins from two and they’ve conceded in all of their away games this season. We’re expecting Sassuolo to edge a tight contest by one or two goals without reply.
