AC Milan could win their first Serie A title in 11 years this weekend when they play Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium in the season finale on Sunday.

The Rossoneri are two points clear of holders Inter Milan at the top of the table and must either match or better Inter's result. Stefano Pioli's troops have momentum on their side, unbeaten in their last 15 games and winning their last five.

Sassuolo, meanwhile, are down in 11th place with 50 points, ending their four-game winless run in Serie A with a 3-1 defeat of Bologna last weekend. The club has nothing at stake in this game but could cause one of the most memorable upsets in recent history by beating Milan and helping Inter win the title.


Sassuolo vs AC Milan Head-To-Head

Milan have won 11 of their last 23 clashes with Sassuolo, losing seven. However, the Neroverdi have won their last two games in the fixture - both at the San Siro - and could record three in a row for the first time in their history.

It will also be just their second league double over Milan, having previously beaten the Rossoneri both home and away in the 2014-15 season.
