Sassuolo – Juventus Betting Tip, Prediction & Odds (16.4.2023)
Juventus are still alive in the race for the Champions League qualification, and the Zebras desperately need a victory at Mapei Stadium. Sassuolo are pretty much safe and far away from both the relegation zone and the top six, but the Black and Greens will certainly try their best to spoil the Zebras’ day.

In their previous five showings at Mapei Stadium, the Black and Greens have recorded three wins, a draw, and a loss while posting a 6:5 goal difference, and four of those five tilts have seen two or fewer goals on the scoreboard.

In their previous seven contests on the road, Juventus have registered five wins and a couple of losses to go with a 12:3 goal difference.

Sassuolo – Juventus Odds
This is a tricky road match for the Zebras, who are listed as 1.90 favorites at BetVictor Sportsbook. The bookmakers won’t be surprised if the hosts find the back of the net, and Both Teams to Score YES pays 1.80 at bet365 Sportsbook.
Seven of the previous eight meetings between Sassuolo and Juventus have seen both teams score, and I would ride this betting trend. Sassuolo have found the back of the net in four of their last five home matches, only failing to score against Napoli in that span. Juventus will have to deal with fatigue following Thursday’s battle in the Europa League, so their defense might be vulnerable in this road clash. The Zebras have been pretty unpredictable lately, keeping their net intact in three of their last six matches overall.
