Juventus vs Sassuolo Match Preview, Prediction, Timings, Lineups, Teams, and How to Watch

Juventus arrive at this one riding a perfect start to the season, and a trip to Sassuolo’s Stadio Mapei is exactly the kind of test that separates genuine title contenders from pretenders. The Bianconeri haven’t dropped a point yet in 2026-27 — can Sassuolo be the ones to spoil the run?

Juventus vs Sassuolo: The Story So Far

Luciano Spalletti’s Juventus have been ruthless early on: a 1-0 win at Frosinone, a composed 2-0 victory over Parma, and back-to-back clean sheets to open the campaign. Their defensive solidity, anchored by Gleison Bremer, has been the standout feature of their start. Sassuolo, meanwhile, sit mid-table with 3 points from two games, still finding their feet after their promotion campaign. The head-to-head history heavily favours the visitors — Juventus have won 17 of the last 24 meetings between these two sides, with Sassuolo managing just 4 wins, per Serie A’s official records.

Team News & Likely Lineups

Juventus have a lengthy absentee list: Gleison Bremer, Federico Gatti, Daniele Rugani, Dusan Vlahovic, Arkadiusz Milik, Mattia Perin, and Carlo Pinsoglio are all unavailable through injury — a concerning number of defensive options missing ahead of this trip. Expect Spalletti to reshuffle his backline while trusting his in-form attack, with Kenan Yildiz and the returning Jonathan David leading the line.

Sassuolo will be without Domenico Berardi, Daniel Boloca, Aster Vranckx, Filippo Romagna, Edoardo Pieragnolo, Luca Lipani, Laurs Skjellerup, and goalkeeper Stefano Turati — a significant blow to their attacking and defensive setup alike.

Prediction

Despite the defensive injuries, Juventus’ attacking quality and dominant recent record against Sassuolo make them clear favourites. Expect the Bianconeri to control possession and find a way through — a comfortable away win looks the likeliest outcome.

Predicted Score: Sassuolo 1-2 Juventus
