Overview.
This will be the first Serie A meeting between Sassuolo and Brescia: the Neroverdi have only won one of the eight clashes against the Lombardi in Serie B (D4 L3). Brescia Calcio have drawn their only Serie A game played on Friday (1-1 v Inter), whilst U.S. Sassuolo Calcio have won one and lost one in the competition (v Empoli and Juventus). Sassuolo have lost their last two Serie A away games in Lombardia – they have never lost three such matches in a row. Brescia have lost their first two Serie A home games this season, as many as they’d lost in the whole of last season in Serie B. Brescia Calcio have lost four of their first six Serie A games this season – their joint-highest total of defeats at this stage of a top-flight campaign.

Teams Comparison.
Each of Brescia’s six Serie A (SA) matches this season (W2, L4) have been decided by a single-goal margin, which has now been the case in nine of their last ten SA games to produce a winner. Four of Brescia’s six games this campaign have also seen the team who scored first go on to win, but ironically for Brescia, the two exceptions have come from their own efforts at home (L2). Even more worryingly, is the fact that six of their nine league goals conceded so far have come at home. Perhaps they need to replicate what they do in the first half-hour, when they are yet to concede in their two SA home games.
Sassuolo mirror their hosts with consecutive SA losses coming into this game. They are yet to win a point on the road, losing all three of their SA away games albeit two of them via a single goal. Sassuolo’s matches are entertaining nonetheless, with 50% of their six SA games producing over 4.5 total match goals.
The first goal could decisive, as each of Sassuolo’s six SA results this season favoured the team scoring first. Poetically, that was also the case in 16 of their 18 SA wins/losses prior to this run. The only exceptions during this sequence came in two away games.
