Who Wins?
Torino is 5-4-1 SU in their last 10 games played and they are 4-1-0 in their last five games played at home. Sassuolo is 2-5-3 SU in their last 10 games played and they are also 1-2-3 SU in their last six games away from home. Head to head, Torino is 3-5-2 SU in their last 10 meetings against Sassuolo and have not lost in their last four matches with two wins. Torino is also the soccer betting favorites in this contest.
Falque and Belotti are good enough to manufacture goals on their own and even from nothing. Nicolas N’Koulu is the key player on defense. The former Marseille player is a stape on their 5-3-2 or 3-5-2 formation. Izzo is also another significant player on defense for Torino. These players could be enough for Torino to make a noise in this match. Losing M’Baye Niang is a significant blow as he was the perfect compliment for Falque. Despite that, they are still the superior squad over Sassuolo and should take victory here. Prediction: Torino
