Sassuolo vs Cremonese predictions: Both teams are tied on the same number of points
Key stats
- Sassuolo are winless in their last seven games (D3, L4).
- The home side have lost their last three league fixtures.
- Cremonese are also winless in their last seven matches (D3, L4).
- The away side have fired blanks in six of their last seven games.
Correct score prediction: Sassuolo 1-0 Cremonese
The two teams will enter this contest with similar form, having gone seven games without a victory. That run of results leaves both sides in mid-table, but they will both be keen to put more distance between themselves and the relegation zone.
The situation is more grim for Cremonese, who have failed to score in six of their seven-game winless run, meaning they could struggle to create chances against Sassuolo in front of their fans this weekend. Therefore, we are backing Fabio Grosso's men to claim a narrow 1-0 win.

- DRAW: 9/4 (3.77) – 30.7%

Sassuolo preview: Sassuolo are dealing with loads of injuries
Ahead of this meeting, Sassuolo are dealing with an injury crisis, meaning they will enter the contest with a depleted squad. Fali Cande has been ruled out of the season, while Edoardo Pieragnolo will also be on the sidelines for Sunday's fixture.
Domenico Berardi has missed out on the last eight matches, and he remains a doubt for this contest. Meanwhile, Daniel Boloca (knee) and Ismael Kone (knee) are also not available for selection.
Predicted lineup: Muric (GK), Doig, Muharemovic, Idzes, Walukiewicz, Vranckx, Matic, Lipani, Lauriente, Pinamonti, Federa
Last five matches
- Napoli 1-0 Sassuolo
- AS Roma 2-0 Sassuolo

Cremonese preview: Cremonese seeking their first win in eight matches
As earlier stated, Cremonese have not tasted a victory in their last seven matches, and a victory on Sunday will be a welcome development. However, if they are to claim their first win in eight matches, they will have to do that without Martin Payero (muscle), Antonio Sanabria (muscle) and Jeremy Sarmiento (undisclosed).
Predicted lineup: Audero (GK), Terracciano, Baschirotto, Bianchetti, Barbieri, Grassi, Bondo, Vandeputte, Pezzella, Vardy, Bonazzoli

- Juventus 5-0 Cremonese

- Fiorentina 1-0 Cremonese
- Cremonese 0-2 Napoli
Player to watch: Jamie Vardy
Jamie Vardy has repaid the faith Cremonese has in him by scoring five times in 17 fixtures. As they trade tackles with Sassuolo on Sunday, the former Leicester City marksman will be on the hunt for another goal.
