Sassuolo to Win
Sassuolo upset the odds to win 4-3 at Roma in their last assignment and Alessio Dionisi’s now half the top half in sight following three wins on the bounce in Serie A. A fourth successive victory could follow on Friday evening when Sassuolo host Spezia. The visitors have lost eight of their 12 away fixtures in the top tier this term and that record is difficult to ignore. As a result, our first Sassuolo vs Spezia prediction advises a stake on a home win.
Over 2.5 Goals
Sassuolo’s last two matches in Serie A have been full of cut and thrust and on each occasion, at least five goals rattled the net. Similarly, four of Spezia’s last six games in Serie A have featured over 2.5 goals, while their clash with Sassoulo earlier in the campaign was also a real thriller, with the teams eventually sharing the spoils following a pulsating 2-2 draw. More excitement is expected when they meet again on Friday and another plunge into the goals markets could be a savvy play.

Predicted Lineup for Sassuolo: Consigli – Toljan, Ruan, Ferrari, Rogerio – Frattesi, Lopez, Henrique – Berardi, Lauriente, Pinamonti
Spezia
Emil Holm is injured at the back for Spezia, while fellow defender Joao Moutinho is considered a doubt. In midfield, Simon Bastoni is laid low with a knee problem and he won't be back in action until next month. Spezia battled their way to a shock 2-1 win at home to Inter Milan in their last outing.
Predicted Lineup for Spezia: Dragowski – Ampadu, Caldara, Nikolaou – Amian, Zurkowski, Bourabia, Agudelo, Gyasi – Shomurodov, M'Bala Nzola
