Sassuolo and Roma are coming off of losses in the Coppa Italia. The Neroverdi were defeated by Juventus 2-1 in the quarterfinals, while Roma were beaten 2-0 by Inter Milan in the last eight.

Now, the two sides, freshly eliminated from the Coppa Italia, return their attention to the league. On Sunday, Sassuolo will welcome Roma to the Mapei Stadium.

Sassuolo are in 12th place in the Serie A standings. They are winless in three straight matches in Serie A ahead of Sunday’s clash at the Mapei Stadium. Roma are unbeaten in three straight Serie A games. The Giallorossi sit seventh in the league and four points off of fifth place Atalanta.

Roma are unbeaten in their last three matches versus Sassuolo in Serie A. The reverse Serie A fixture between these sides finished with Roma winning 2-1. Bryan Christante scored in the first half, but Sassuolo’s Filip Djuricic levelled the score.

The Giallorossi got the winner on 90 minutes thanks to Stephan El Shaarawy. The goal came with the last kick of the game in a match that Sassuolo should have scored more goals.

Roma picked up eight points from the last 18 points available in the league. They conceded 10 times and scored 10 goals.

Sassuolo collected just five points from the last 18 points available. They were –5 in goals with 14 conceded and nine scored.

The Neroverdi posted a record of 3W-4D-5L at home this term. They have scored 15 goals and conceded 19 times at the Mapei Stadium.

Roma have been extremely hot and cold on the road in 2021-22 in Serie A. The Giallorossi have an away record of 5W-0D-6L with 23 goals scored and 18 allowed. Roma’s last away match ended as a 4-2 win over Empoli.

Jose Mourinho could be without Roger Ibanez, Tammy Abraham, and Leonardo Spinazzola. Ibanez has been ruled out already.

Sassuolo’s Giacomo Raspadori and Gianluca Scamacca are both suspended. Forward Filip Djuricic, who scored against Roma earlier this season, is a doubt due to a hamstring strain.

Roma are on a good run of form versus Sassuolo. They are also on a three-match Serie A unbeaten streak. The Giallorossi should claim a second straight win over the Neroverdi, who are struggling at the moment.

Like the teams’ previous Serie A clash this season, the match should finish 2-1 with Roma claiming a victory. The win could get Roma closer to the Serie A top five.
