After suffering three consecutive defeats, including a heavy 6-2 loss to Lazio in midweek, Sassuolo will look to give fans some cheer when they face Fiorentina on Monday evening.The Neroverdi have conceded 12 goals across their last three Serie A outings, highlighting their alarming defensive problems. Changes to the starting XI are expected, with Sulemana, Bowie and Cande all pushing for places. Sassuolo have also struggled to keep opponents quiet at home, conceding an average of 2.20 goals per game and failing to record a clean sheet in any of their last ten matches.

Fiorentina, meanwhile, ended a three-game losing streak by drawing 2-2 with Atalanta. Despite dropping points, the Viola showed plenty of attacking intent, registering 26 attempts on goal. Injuries to Ranieri, Sottil, Parisi and Pongracic remain a concern, while Wilfried Gnonto is pushing for a starting role. Fiorentina have been vulnerable defensively on their travels, conceding 2.50 goals per away game, but Sassuolo's current struggles should give the visitors opportunities to attack.

Over 2.5 goals looks appealing, with 16 of the last 24 H2H meetings producing at least three goals. Both teams to score is another strong option, as this landed in 17 of those 24 encounters, alongside Fiorentina or Draw (better form).
