Sassuolo vs Como

Como continue their push for a top four finish and travel to Sassuolo for a Friday night Italian Serie A fixture.

The visitors have already beaten the home side twice this season and have impressed on their travels lately. They should continue their dominance over the hosts, who are struggling to find their best form at the moment.

Sassuolo News

Sassuolo come into this clash off the back of a 2-1 defeat at Genoa in their previous Serie A fixture. They looked to be heading for a draw following Ismael Kone’s second-half goal equalizer, but went on to concede a late winner.

That result means Sassuolo are winless in four of their last five Serie A matches, suffering three defeats in this run. Fabio Grosso’s team are currently 11th in the table and will be targeting a top-half finish in the final weeks of the season.

The results have been a bit better at home for Sassuolo, although they remain slightly erratic, with three wins and two defeats in their last five matches in front of their fans. Four of those five fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

Como News

Manager Cesc Fabregas would have been left disappointed after Como threw away a two-goal lead in their 4-3 defeat to Inter Milan last time out. Efforts from Alex Valle, Nico Paz, and Lucas Da Cunha proved futile as they lost for the first time in 10 matches.

Sitting fifth in the table, two points off fourth-placed Juventus, Como will be targeting a swift return to winning ways to maintain their push for a Champions League place. They have done some good work on their travels and are unbeaten in their last nine away matches across all competitions, picking up six wins in this run.

Como have no problems in attack and have scored over 1.5 goals in four of their last five Serie A matches. All four fixtures in this run have also produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Como earned home wins in the two meetings with Sassuolo this season. The visitors claimed a 3-0 victory in a Coppa Italia clash back in September and followed that up with a 2-0 Serie A triumph in November.

Verdict

Sassuolo v Como

Como are unbeaten in their last nine away matches across all competitions and will be feeling confident heading into this clash. Having also won the two meetings with Sassuolo this season, they should claim the upper hand over the hosts, who have been unconvincing lately.

Como scored over 1.5 goals in the two matches against Sassuolo this season, and a repeat could be considered. With four of their last five matches producing over 2.5 goals, a similar outcome could also be on the cards.
