Salernitana vs Sassuolo Prediction and Betting Tips | April 22nd 2023

Salernitana will welcome Sassuolo to the Stadio Arechi in Serie A action on Saturday.

The hosts are undefeated in their last seven league outings, drawing their last six. They played their third consecutive 1-1 draw last time around as they were held to a stalemate in their away game by Torino. Tonny Vilhena opened the scoring in the ninth minute, which was canceled out by Antonio Sanabria in the second half.

Sassuolo returned to winning ways last week after two games as Grégoire Defrel's 64th-minute strike helped them record a 1-0 home win over Juventus.

Thanks to the win, they find themselves in 10th place in the league table with 40 points from 30 games.
