Interesting Serie A action is staged on Monday, as Torino chase a second straight victory in the league. Sassuolo will be the visitors in Serie A, as they look to end a four-game wait for a victory in the Italian top-flight.
Serie A Preview
The eyes will be drawn to the bottom of the Serie A standings on Monday, as two sides in the bottom half lock horns. Torino should come into this fixture in good confidence after landing a third victory of the season in their previous match. But, they have struggled in the final third throughout the campaign to this point after netting on just seven occasions.
But, last weekend’s win ended a four-game winless run in the competition, and they defended excellently to secure the success on the road against Lecce. Their winning effort in the victory was netted just before the half time break, as Alessandro Buongiorno netted the winning goal with just one of two shots on target for Torino.
Sassuolo find themselves a couple of places below their rivals in the Serie A standings coming into this weekend, as they have recorded three wins and two draws from their opening ten matches. They will likely need to get back on track soon, as they sit just four points above the relegation places at this very early stage.
Their recent form would ask questions of their chances this weekend, as they have gone four without a win in Serie A. But, they have played out two draws over that period. That includes a 1-1 draw in front of their home fans against Bologna last weekend. Their equalising effort in that tie was netted just before the half time break by Daniel Boloca.
Torino vs Sassuolo Head to Head
Sassuolo landed a 1-0 victory in this exact fixture last term, but that remains their only win in the previous six encounters between these two sides. Torino have won twice over the same period, while three draws have been played out between the teams. The most recent match ended in a 1-1 draw in April.
Torino vs Sassuolo Prediction
This is a challenging fixture to call in Serie A on Monday, as both Torino and Sassuolo will be in desperate need of the points. However, the narrow preference is for the visitors, who have gone three without defeat in the competition against their rivals.
