Sassuolo<\/a> travel to the Arena Garibaldi – Stadio Romeo Anconetani on Saturday, 31 January, aiming to capitalise on Pisa<\/a>‘s struggles at the foot of Serie A<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Pisa having just one league victory all season and Sassuolo showing signs of sharper attacking play, this clash is a real test for the hosts as they look to halt their slide. Kick-off is set for 14:00, and with both sides high in the yellow card count, tempers could flare in Tuscany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Best Bets & Predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Based on Pisa’s defensive woes, Sassuolo’s clinical edge, and the high draw rate in Pisa’s games, here are our top betting recommendations for this match. We’re especially confident that Sassuolo’s superior finishing can make the difference, while Pisa’s record suggests another close contest is likely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Prediction<\/th>\nOdds & Bookmaker<\/th>\nConfidence<\/th>\nWhy We’re Backing It<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Sassuolo to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n6\/4 @ Bet365<\/a>
(40.0%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWe are backing Sassuolo to win because they have scored more goals (24) and conceded fewer (28) than Pisa, and have overperformed their expected goals. Pisa’s single win in 22 matches and a league-worst -19 goal difference signal real struggles. The price of 6\/4<\/a> (40.0%) looks solid value given the form gap.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Both Teams to Score \u2013 Yes<\/strong><\/td>\n10\/11 @ Bet365<\/a>
(52.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBoth teams have defensive vulnerabilities: Pisa concede at a rate of 1.68 per game, and Sassuolo’s backline isn’t watertight either. The last meeting was a 2-2 draw. 10\/11<\/a> (52.4%) for BTTS Yes is worth a look given both sides\u2019 form and the high cards count that could disrupt defences.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
