Milan vs Sassuolo Prediction: the Hosts Will Concede But Still Win

Prediction for the Coppa Italia match between Milan vs Sassuolo, which will take place on December 3rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Milan

The Rossoneri had a great week, with two crucial victories. Firstly, Paulo Fonseca's team faced Slovan in the Champions League in Bratislava, Slovakia. The first half ended in a draw, but they really found their stride and overpowered the opponent in the second half. Milan came out on top with a 3:2 win, with goals from Pulisic, Leao, and Abraham. This marks Milan's third victory in the last five rounds of the Champions League. In the tournament standings, the Rossoneri are currently in 16th place.

Then Milan met with Empoli in the Italian championship. The opposition has been doing well this season, but the Reds and Blacks still scored three unanswered goals. 3:0 – Morata and Reijnders got a double. So, Milan is still in seventh place, but they're now four points closer to the European Cup spot with a game in hand.

Sassuolo

The Neroverdi left Serie A at the end of last season, but it looks like they're not planning to wait around to get back into the top division. Sassuolo's tenth win in 15 league matches came in the previous round of Serie B with a 2:0 away win over Reggiana. Grosso's team is currently leading the standings by three points.

Sassuolo started their Coppa Italia journey in the round of 64. First, the Blacks and Greens beat Cittadella 2:1, and in the last 16, they defeated Serie A team Lecce 2:0 on the road.

Expert Betting Tips

Milan is stronger than Sassuolo. Paulo Fonseca's team has also been on a roll, scoring six goals last week and managing two victories. In the Coppa, though, Milan is unlikely to field their main squad, so the Neroverdi still has a chance. We think Sassuolo will score at the San Siro, but we don't believe the Blacks and Greens will concede less. Milan looks too powerful in attack lately. We're betting on the total, expecting the home team to be closer to victory.
