Inter lead Serie A in goals scored with 81 this season. The Nerazzurri are looking to add to their goal tally against Sassuolo. Will our AI score prediction forecast goals at the Mapei Stadium?
Inter have already wrapped up the Serie A title and can break the 100-point mark. Simone Inzaghi’s team suffered just one defeat in their 34 matches this season in Serie A.
Not only do Inter have the league’s best attack, but they have the best defence. Just 18 goals were conceded by Inter in 34 fixtures.
It will be a difficult match for Sassuolo, who are 19th in the league and heading down to Serie A unless something changes quickly.
Five points separate Sassuolo from safety. They are on a two-game losing streak in the league. Only already-relegated Salernitana have lost more matches than Sassuolo’s 20 this season. Salernitana have lost 23 times.
Remarkably, Sassuolo are the only team to defeat Inter this season in Serie A. The Neroverdi claimed a 2-1 win at the San Siro in September.
Inter scored first through Denzel Dumfries in the 46th minute. However, Sassuolo fought back, scoring goals through Nedim Bajrami and Domenico Berardi. Since then, Inter have been unstoppable in the league.
The Nerazzurri took 14 points from the last six matches. They scored 11 goals and conceded five times. Inter are the league’s best away team, with 14 wins and two draws. The Nerazzurri scored 38 times and conceded eight.
Sassuolo took just three points from the last six matches. They were outscored 15-7 by their opponents. The Neroverdi lost their last two fixtures to Lecce 3-0 and Fiorentina 5-1.
The Neroverdi took 17 of their 26 points at home. They have been outscored 32-22 by opponents at the Mapei Stadium.
Lautaro Martinez leads the team in goals with 23 goals. He not only leads the team in scoring, but Martinez is the top scorer in Serie A. The Argentine has scored 28% of Inter’s goals.
One of the reasons Sassuolo have struggled this season is due to the absence of Berardi. The forward tore his ACL and is out for the rest of the season.
In Berardi’s absence, Andrea Pinamonti has scored Sassuolo’s most goals. He has 10 goals in Serie A.
Inter have been brilliant this season and should post another victory this weekend against Sassuolo. The Nerazzurri should avenge their loss from earlier this season. Our score prediction is for a 3-1 win for Inter.
