Sassuolo vs Cremonese Predictions
- Over 2.5 goals have been scored in five of Cremonese’s last six games.
- The Serie A strugglers have failed to keep a clean sheet since early November.
- Only five Serie A teams have conceded more than the 35 goals shipped by Sassuolo this season.
Cremonese finally off the mark
It took them 24 games, but Cremonese finally have a win to their names on their return to Serie A, with Daniel Ciofani’s late penalty sealing a 2-1 triumph over Jose Mourinho’s Roma on Tuesday. Davide Ballardini’s men remain eight points adrift of safety, however, ahead of Monday’s trip to Sassuolo – who have themselves pulled clear of trouble with a decent run of form over the last month or so. However, with the Neroverdi consistently inconsistent, punters may decide to back goals.
Cremonese have seen over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches, and their attacking returns have improved since Ballardini took charge in January. Cremonese have hit the net 10 times in their last eight games, but they are struggling at the other end and are yet to keep a clean sheet under their new boss, conceding 14 goals. Only Salernitana (44) have conceded more than the 43 goals shipped by Cremonese this campaign in Serie A, and they look unlikely to keep their hosts out.
Sassuolo have only lost one of their last five games – against runaway Serie A leaders Napoli, with that run of form moving Alessio Dionisi’s men 10 points clear of the bottom three. The high-pressing Neroverdi have scored nine goals in their last five, beating Milan and Atalanta in that sequence, and their underlying numbers suggest they will trouble their struggling visitors. Only six Serie A sides average more shots on target per game than the Neroverdi, who also sit in the league’s top half for expected goals.
Goals the safest play at Mapei Stadium
With Sassuolo often guilty of oscillating between the sublime and the ridiculous, we’re advising punters to overlook the short price around the hosts and back over 2.5 goals to be scored – that has been a winning bet in five of Sassuolo’s last 10 matches.
Meanwhile, with Cremonese yet to win on the road all campaign, a 2-1 win for Sassuolo may represent a solid correct score prediction.
