Inter Team News
The Champions League match against Ajax and the 0-2 win was just what the doctor ordered, as Inter now has some newly found confidence after underperforming in Serie A. Okay, Inter only did poorly once, in a 1-2 home defeat to Udinese, whereas they looked good in a 4-3 defeat to Juventus. That one could have gone either way, but it was Inter on the receiving end on two late goals that overturned a 2-3 lead.
Because of the Udinese defeat, Inter is probably very determined to show a different face to their home fans after doing the Turin and Amsterdam road trip. Inter is 11th and simply must win here.
Sassuolo Team News
So Sassuolo found the first victim, Lazio, but apparently this side isn't very difficult to beat to nil when they come visit. Como did the same to them. More important than the result is the fact that Sassuolo played on the front foot throughout the match, and it always looked like the home side is winning this. Not that Sassuolo looked good, but Lazio looked lost.
Other than this positive result, Sassuolo has a 3-2 defeat in Cremona, where they conceded twice and then equalized to 2-2, only to see a winning goal in stoppage time.
However, one thing to note here is that Sassuolo started to play freely. The 0-2 home defeat to Napoli was too much to handle, as Conte's team doesn't allow much space. Sassuolo looked much better in the other two matches, but it took a 2-0 Cremonese lead to finally get this team started. That's when they had nothing to lose so they started playing.
Probable Lineups
Inter (3-5-2): Sommer - Bisseck, De Vrij, Bastoni - Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Sucic, Carlos Augusto - Thuram, Esposito. Coach Chivu.
Sassuolo (4-3-3): Turati - Coulibaly, Idzes, Muharemovic, Doig - Vrancx, Matic, Kone - Berardi, Pinamonti, Lauriente. Coach Grosso.
Some rotation is expected at Inter, and, among other players to be rested, Lautaro is announced on the bench.
The Betting Market
The price on Inter is 1.27, which makes this game a matter of whether you think Inter will win with a handicap or not. Both Teams To Score: NO is priced at 1.80, offering quite good value as Sassuolo will be the inferior side here.
The Betting Verdict
The prices on BTTS-No and Inter -1.50 are the same, 1.80, and it's a toss-up between the two. We don't yet know if Sassuolo is capable of playing offensively on the road and wouldn't want to find out with a ruined BTTS-No bet in a 4-1 home win.
Therefore, our official bet here is Inter, under pressure to perform, to win this one with a handicap. They already won 5-0 against Torino and will be looking to replicate this performance here, with a weaker opponent, too.
The Pick :
Inter 3-0 Sassuolo
