Forebet is here for the midweek Serie A games that sees the champions clash with Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium with all the data, analysis, mathematics and football predictions for this match.

The trends for Napoli do not read well here, and their probability of winning a game each week continues to go down with the club now sitting in ninth after failing to win yet again.

It now leaves the Naples side with just 10 wins from nine games and eight losses on the board too, alongside what was their seventh draw of the season when they clashed with Cagliari.

The struggling Cagliari equalised in the last minute that day after Victor Osimhen scored once more, and the top scorer in Serie A from last season now has eight goals in 14 league games and two in the Champions League after scoring against Barcelona too.

The last win for Napoli came back in early February as they defeated Hellas Verona with a narrow 2-1 win.

They have also drawn with Genoa since then and even played out a 1-0 loss to AC Milan at the San Siro two weeks ago.

Combine this with a draw against Lazio and a loss in the Supercoppa Italiana final to Inter Milan and it now means only one win in the past six weeks for Napoli.

In reality, it is turning out to be one of the worst seasons in Napoli's recent history, and this run so far will no doubt go down as one of the worst title defences in Serie A times, as the reigning champions now sit behind the top four by 11 points and adrift of Inter Milan by 29 points - this is just short of a 50% gap in points on Inter in first.

The data and analysis for Sassuolo in these football predictions, however, is much worse.

The club are once again fighting relegation and come into this match only above Hellas Verona in 18th because of their one extra win on the board, as they have a worse goals difference too.

Sassuolo, quite incredibly, are the only team to beat the unrivalled league leaders Inter in Serie A this season, recording a 2-1 win over at the San Siro in what is no doubt one of the upsets of the season across Europe.

Recently, the Black and Green have lost to Atalanta and Empoli in back-to-back games and also suffered losses against Bologna, Monza and Juventus a few weeks back. This now means their only win in 2024 was in a home victory over Fiorentina.

Forebet predicts a win for Napoli and over 2.5 goals.
