Sassuolo vs Udinese Prediction and Betting Tips | September 11th 2022
Sassuolo will host Udinese at the Mapei Stadium on Sunday afternoon in the sixth matchday of the 2022-23 Serie A campaign.
The Neroverdi have endured a disappointing start to their campaign, kicking off with a first-round exit from the Coppa Italia after losing 3-2 to Serie B new boys Modena. They were held to a goalless draw by newly-promoted Cremonese in their last league game and were quite clearly the better side but could not find a way past Andrei Radu in the opposition goal.
Sassuolo sit 12th in the league table with six points from five games. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and get their campaign back on track this weekend.
Udinese, meanwhile, have enjoyed a solid start to life under new boss Andrea Sottil and will fancy themselves early European contenders. They carried out a clinical 4-0 dismantling of Roma in their last game, with four different players getting on the scoresheet to clinch their biggest win over the Neroverdi in the 21st century.
The visitors sit fourth in the Serie A standings with 10 points from five games. They are just three points behind league leaders Atalanta and will aim to draw level this weekend.
