Sassuolo take on the visitors Torino in the round 28 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, April 3rd at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore (Reggio Emilia).
Sassuolo have been on an excellent run lately. It wasn't long ago that the team was not far from the relegation zone, but now they are comfortably situated in mid-table. This is all thanks to an impressive run of four consecutive wins by Alessio Dionisi's men. While the matches against Cremonese and Roma were exciting shootouts, Sassuolo's victories over Spezia and Lecce were won in a pragmatic manner, with both matches ending in a minimal score of 1-0. As you can see, black and green team may have problems scoring goals. However, they are also capable of defending reliably and playing for a clean sheet, especially at home. In the last five Serie A matches involving this team, the bet on Under 2.5 goals occurred more often than not.

I would venture to guess that we won't see many goals in the match against Torino either. The Bulls cannot be called an attacking team as they are used to playing from the back and countering. In the previous round, they were unable to offer any resistance to the leading Napoli and predictably lost without scoring. However, in the two rounds before that, they played for a clean sheet and won both matches, although they also scored very little: 2-0 victory over Lecce and 1-0 over Bologna. In the current Serie A season, the bet on Under 2.5 goals with Torino's participation was more profitable than not - 16 cases against 11.
Sassuolo adhere to attacking football, but if they come up against a closed team, then goals should not be expected in those matches, as was the case against Spezia or Lecce. Torino is precisely such a team. After 27 rounds, the difference in goals for Bulls is only 29-33, which cannot be called significant numbers for the high-scoring Serie A. In three out of their last five away matches of the championship, the Bulls played on Under 2.5 goals. This bet came through in four out of their last five home matches of the league for Sassuolo. Recently, the head-to-head matches between these opponents cannot be called high-scoring. In the first round of the current season, the Bulls lost at home to their opponent 0-1. And in the last face-to-face match on the field of Sassuolo, they, on the contrary, came out on top with the same score. I think in this match, we will see at most one or two goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
