Juventus vs Sassuolo live preview Serie A

Match Stats
Juventus:
Since their surprising 4-2 defeat in September against Sassuolo, Juventus has been undefeated, securing 11 league victories in the subsequent 14 matches, leading the Serie A performance charts during that period. Accumulating 36 points, three more than title rivals Inter Milan, Juventus, with an overall total of 46 points from the first half of the season, aims to maintain its Scudetto-winning trend. A recent 2-1 win against 10-man Salernitana, following a 6-1 Coppa Italia triumph, keeps them on course for potential domestic success.

Sassuolo: 
Sassuolo, despite a challenging first half of the season, has found success against Juventus in recent encounters, winning three of the last five league matches against them. Andrea Pinamonti's goal helped Sassuolo secure a win against Fiorentina in their last outing, showcasing their capability to trouble top-four contenders. As they face Juventus, Sassuolo aims to build on their recent positive results and potentially create another upset in their 400th Serie A fixture.

Analysis:
Juventus anticipates the return of Adrien Rabiot to the starting lineup after missing the last Coppa Italia match due to a thigh problem. Rabiot is expected to replace the suspended Weston McKennie. Federico Gatti's one-match ban opens up a potential spot for either Alex Sandro or Daniele Rugani in the defensive lineup. Federico Chiesa may be available on the bench despite a knee injury, while Arkadiusz Milik and Dusan Vlahovic vie for a striking role alongside rookie Kenan Yildiz. Sassuolo, missing Jeremy Toljan and Matias Vina due to injury, is likely to feature Marcus Pedersen and Mattia Viti as full-backs. The attack will be led by last week's matchwinner Andrea Pinamonti, supported by Domenico Berardi and Armand Lauriente, the latter having scored the only league goal against Juventus earlier this season.
