Sassuolo hasn’t made a great start to their Serie A campaign, recording just one win from their opening five games thus far. The Black and Greens have shared the spoils in their last three games against Cremonese (0-0), AC Milan (0-0) and Spezia (2-0). The Watermelon Peel secured their only win of the campaign against Lecce on August 21, courtesy of Domenico Berrardi’s lone strike.Â
Udinese, on the other hand, have been brilliant so far this season, having won three of their opening five games. In their last match against Roma, the White and Blacks netted four times without reply. Destiny Udogie scored the opening goal inside the opening five minutes before Lazar Samardzic, Roberto Pereyra and Sandi Lovric found the back of the net in the second half to seal the win. It was the Little Zebras’ third successive victory and they would be hoping to make it four when they travel to Reggio Emilia on Sunday.Â
