Juventus vs Sassuolo prediction
Juventus have to win if they want to avoid Inter Milan easing away in the Serie A title race and Allegri’s hosts and they have only lost once in all competitions so far in 2023/24 — ironically, it was against Sassuolo back in September.
Sassuolo have won just one of their their last six league matches and Juventus are unbeaten in Turin since their final home game of last season.
Prediction: Juventus 2-0 Sassuolo
