After escaping a defeat in the recent Derby d’Italia against reigning champions Inter Milan, Juventus will look to bounce back to winning ways when they host Sassuolo at the Allianz Stadium in a rare midweek Serie A clash on Wednesday. Massimiliano Allegri’s men have done well to bounce back from a slow start to their home league’s 2021-22 campaign. After failing to register a win in their first three games of the season, the Bianconeri have since been on a nine-game unbeaten run in all competitions. The Turin-based club will be seeking to extend that run to draw closer to the clubs just above them in the standings.
On the other hand, the visitors have not quite been performing to potential in the season so far. Alessio Dionisi’s side have won just three of their first nine games, losing four times, which has sunk them to bottom half at 13th on the Serie A table. However, The Neroverdi are on their best run of form currently, as they went on to secure a 3-1 victory over newly-promoted Venezia on Saturday.
Needless to say, both sides are in good form but when they last squared off in May this year, the game ended in a 3-1 win for Juventus.
The Serie A 2021-22 match between Juventus vs Sassuolo, will kick off at 10:00 PM IST.
