Sassuolo hosts Torino in round 5 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, October 23rd at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore (Reggio Emilia)
Under the current coach Roberto De Zerbi, Sassuolo began to resemble the squad that managed to break into European competition a couple of years ago. Last season, the Black and Greens failed to repeat that success - the team came 8th to the finish line. But it's worth remembering how strong the competitors are. Showing loyalty to the chosen style, Sassuolo has shown a nice start in the new championship. The team stumbled only in the first match with Cagliari, but it managed to scratch out a draw in the 87th minute. Then there were three victories in a row, which helped to rise to the group of leaders. Yes, the opponents were rather modest (La Spezia, Crotone, and Bologna). However, Sassuolo managed to score four goals against each of them, and even Atalanta would envy such scoring. Berardi (3+1) and experienced Caputo (4+2) are already habitually good.

The Bulls are not without ambition. Torino wants to play at least in the Europa League. However, it has been finishing outside the European cup zone for a long time, despite frequent changes on the coaching bridge. And these changes can in no way help to fix this situation. Under Marco Giampaolo, Torino has not managed to score points yet. Moreover, only Andrea Belotti scores. Yes, the forward of the national team has already scored four goals, but the opponents managed to upset Torino’s goalkeeper with a larger number of goals. It seems that Salvatore Sirigu is considered one of the best goalkeepers in the country and has experience of inviting to the Italian national team. Nevertheless, he conceded from Fiorentina in the 78th minute of the first match of the new championship. Then the Bulls received four goals from Atalanta (it could have been expected, knowing the strength of the team of Miranchuk and Malinovsky). And even Cagliari managed to aggrieve Sirigu thrice.
Torino is frankly disappointing right now. Yes, this club should improve, but it is unlikely that this will happen on Friday. Sassuolo is strong and must win. We recommend betting on the hosts’ victory with a -1.5 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Sassuolo to win with -1.5 handicap
