Udinese take on Sassuolo this weekend

The Serie A returns to the fold with another set of important matches this weekend as Udinese take on Sassuolo on Sunday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will want to win this game.

Udinese are in 14th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best this season. The home side suffered a 2-0 defeat against reigning champions Inter Milan last weekend and will need to bounce back in this match.

Sassuolo, on the other hand, are in 13th place in the league table at the moment and are yet to hit their stride this season. The Neroverdi suffered a shock 2-1 defeat against Empoli in their previous game and will need to make amends this weekend.

Udinese vs Sassuolo Prediction

Sassuolo have an impressive squad but have largely failed to justify their potential so far this season. The likes of Domenico Berardi and Jeremie Boga can be lethal on their day and will need to make their mark this weekend.

Udinese have also built a robust squad but will need to work hard to secure a top-ten finish in the coming months. Sassuolo are the better team on paper and hold the upper hand going into this match.

Prediction: Udinese 1-2 Sassuolo
