AC Milan vs. Sassuolo 11/28/21 Serie A Soccer Picks, Best Bets and Odds

AC Milan is hosting Sassuolo at San Siro in round 14 of the Italian Serie A. Milan has won their Champions League game earlier this week, and they have jumped to 3^rd place in that group. Sassuolo is the team that is scoring a lot, but they haven’t won any of their last 3 games.

Milan is also doing a great job in Serie A, and with only 1 loss, they are now in 2^nd place in the standings with 32 points. Offensively, Only Inter is better than Milan and their 29 scored goals in 13 games. Ibrahimovic is now the leading goalscorer for Milan with 5 goals, while Giroud and Leao added 4 goals each. Hernandez has added 4 assists. The injuries are still a bit of a problem for Milan, and some great players will miss this game. In that Champions League game against Atletico Madrid earlier this week, Milan was the better team with 58% of ball possession, 4 shots on goal, 3 corner kicks, 2 big chances created, and 85% of the correct passes. Milan was dangerous, they were creating chances, and they have won that game 0-1 with a goal in the 88^th minute. Milan has a few easier games in Serie A ahead if we can call them that, and then they are facing Liverpool in the Champions League, and that is the game they need to win if they want to advance to the next stage.

Sassuolo is in 13^th place in the standings, but they have been scoring and conceding a lot of goals so far this season. Sassuolo has 19 scored goals and 20 conceded goals. In their last 3 games, Sassuolo has 2 losses and a draw, and they have scored 5 goals while conceding 7 goals. Berardi has scored 6 goals and added 3 assists for Sassuolo so far, and he is their leading goalscorer. Only Obiang and Frattesi are injured for Sassuolo at this time. Sassuolo was hosting Cagliari in their last game in Serie A, and they were the dominant team with 60% of ball possession, 4 shots on goal, 6 corner kicks, 6 big chances created, and 88% of the correct passes. Overall, and very good game for Sassuolo, and they deserved a win, but the final result was 2-2. I don’t think Sassuolo has the depth to reach the Europa League, and I think their defense will improve soon, but at the moment they are in the deep hole with their sloppy defense.

Milan is undefeated at home so far this season, and they are playing really well. After winning their first Champions League game in many years, Milan is filled with confidence right now, and they need to keep going strong in this game as well.
