Milan have stayed unbeaten in the league so far but the performances have not convinced many watchers and the pressure is building on Ruben Amorim after that tough loss to Benfica in Europe. The team managed wins against Torino, Venezia and Lecce yet those sides lack real fire and the draws against Juventus and Lazio showed they struggle to close out games when the opposition pushes hard. Sassuolo on the other hand sit as one of the most dangerous mid table sides and they already stunned Juventus at home with a late winner so this fixture looks tricky for the visitors.
Team Form
- Milan picked up three wins in five league games but only against teams with little ambition while their results against top sides ended in draws
- Sassuolo grabbed a shock home victory over Juventus and they have a strong record against Milan in recent meetings including a 2-0 win last season
- Head to head shows Sassuolo unbeaten in seven of the last ten clashes which adds extra spice to the matchup
Tactical Analysis
The Rossoneri often look flat in attack when facing organized defenses and they conceded late goals in both draws this season which points to concentration issues. Sassuolo love to play with high energy at home and their counter attacks could cause real problems especially if Milan push too many men forward. Both sides have attacking talent that can create chances so expect open play with goals at both ends and the total likely going over the line.
Betting Proposal
Given the form and the head to head trends this game has all the signs of an entertaining battle where both teams find the net. The types point to Sassuolo and Milan exchanging goals with both teams to score at good odds while the attacking styles suggest the match will produce three goals or more. Both teams to score yes at 1.68 and over 2.5 goals at 1.75 look the smartest plays here.
