Juventus are coming off a disastrous season, their first in 11 years without a trophy and their second in a row without a Serie A title, so the pressure on coach Massimiliano Allegri is immense.

The “Old Signora” this summer lost Matthijs de Ligt (moved to Bayern Munich for 67 million euros, plus another 10 million euros in performance bonuses), Paulo Dybala (arrived at “Roma” without a contract) and Merich Demiral (for whom ” Atalanta” where he was on loan, activated the final transfer clause of 20 million euros).

In their place came Paul Pogba and Angel Di Maria (out of contract, from Manchester United and PSG respectively), Filip Kostic (from Eintracht Frankfurt for €20 million), plus centre-back Gleison Bremer (from local rivals Torino for €41 million, and as well as performance bonuses for another 9 million euros).

Sassuolo finished the previous season in 11th place, but the new season promises to be a tough one for coach Alessio Dionisi’s side, given the departure of several important players such as Gianluca Scamacca, the team’s top scorer with 16 goals (West Ham United, €36m), Filip Djuricic (Sampdoria, no contract) or Vlad Kirices (Cremonese, transfer fee confidential).

He was replaced by Agustin Alvarez, the Uruguayan forward of Peñarol Montevideo, who scored just one goal in his last 22 matches!

In fact, Sassuolo started the new official season on the left, the team lost to Modena in the Coppa Italia.

In the last 10 direct matches, “Juventus” won seven times, “Sassuolo” – only once, and two matches ended in a draw.

Juventus won both matches with Sassuolo last season, each time with a score of 2-1.

Superbet offers odds of 1.65 for a maximum of three goals scored in the match between Juventus and Sassuolo.
