Sassuolo vs AS Roma Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Serie A 2025-26

The Giallorossi emerged victorious when they last faced the Neroverdi.

Sassuolo are now gearing up to take on AS Roma for their matchweek 8 fixture of the Serie A 2025-26 edition. MAPEI Stadium – Città del Tricolore will witness an interesting contest between these clubs.

The Neroverdi will be at home and it is going to be an added advantage for them. They were held to a goalless draw in their previous Italian league game. Sassuolo have come up with decent performances and are likely to put up a strong fight in their upcoming fixture.

AS Roma have come up with lacklustre performances in their last two matches. They first faced a defeat against Inter Milan in their Serie A matchup. The Giallorossi fell prey to Viktoria Plzen in their UEFA Europa League fixture. The visitors need to work on their attacking front if they want to secure three crucial points in their upcoming game.

Players to Watch

Andrea Pinamonto (Sassuolo)

The 26-year-old Italian forward is going to play a crucial part in the final third for the hosts. In seven league games this season, Andrea Pinamonto has scored two goals for Sassuolo and will now be looking to add more to his tally. He will be looking to come up with a better approach this time around.

Paulo Dybala (AS Roma)

Paulo Dybala was the sole goal scorer for AS Roma in their last fixture against Viktoria Plzen in the UEL. The Argentine will now be keen to continue his scoring run and is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence. He controls the ball well and knows how to find spaces in the opponent’s defence.
