Sassuolo are suffering a slum in recent matches. However, they’ve managed to gain five points in four matches and still considered as contenders for the place in the next stage, mainly due to 3-0 win exactly over Athletic in their reverse fixture and two draws with Rapid, 1-1, 2-2. However, the team’s record speaks for itself – today’s visitors are unable to win for seven matches since the middle of October. Moreover, Sassuolo took only four wins in their last 17 matches, recording four draws and lowing nine matches while the most recent away win was taken three months ago.
Team’s record in recent matches give us clear idea who will be favorites of the matchup. On top of that, Athletic need to prove their worth after 0-3 defeat and revenge motive should them to take three points today.
Prediction for the match: Athletic Bilbao to win.
