Current streaks

Recent form

Sassuolo

Sassuolo have shown mixed form in their recent matches, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six games. The Neroverdi have been particularly solid defensively, keeping three clean sheets and conceding only 0.67 goals per game on average. However, their attacking output has been somewhat limited, scoring just 0.83 goals per game. Interestingly, 83% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards low-scoring affairs. Sassuolo's most impressive result came in a friendly against Trento, where they secured a convincing 3-0 victory. However, they ended their previous Serie B campaign on a sour note with back-to-back losses against Catanzaro and Frosinone. The team's recent Coppa Italia win against Catanzaro may provide a confidence boost as they look to improve their fortunes in the upcoming season.

The Partenopei are currently on a four-match winning streak, demonstrating their resilience after a narrow 2-1 loss to Brest in a friendly. Their attacking prowess has been particularly noteworthy, with Napoli scoring an average of 2.17 goals per game and netting four times in a high-scoring friendly against Sorrento. Defensively, they've been solid, keeping two clean sheets and conceding just one goal per game on average. The team's matches have been entertaining affairs, with 83% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in two-thirds of the fixtures. Despite not having played any league matches yet, Napoli's pre-season form suggests they're well-prepared for the upcoming campaign.

Recent home/away form

Sassuolo

Sassuolo have shown impressive form at home, winning four of their last six matches. The Neroverdi have been particularly strong defensively, keeping three clean sheets and conceding only four goals across these six games. Their attacking prowess was on full display in a high-scoring 5-1 victory over Reggiana, which stands out as their most dominant performance. Sassuolo's goal-scoring average of 1.83 goals per game is commendable, although they've experienced a slight dip in form with back-to-back losses against Catanzaro and Frosinone.

The team's ability to keep matches low-scoring is evident, with 67% of their recent home games featuring under 2.5 goals.

Napoli

Napoli's recent away form shows a mixed bag of results, with the team demonstrating resilience in defence but struggling to find consistency in attack. The Partenopei have managed to keep four clean sheets in their last six away matches, which is an impressive statistic. However, their goal-scoring prowess has been somewhat lacking, with only four goals scored across these six games, averaging a mere 0.67 goals per match.

Napoli's last away defeat came against Como, but since then, they have gone on a five-match unbeaten run on their travels, showcasing their ability to grind out results. While there haven't been any particularly high-scoring games in this stretch, the team's defensive solidity has been key to their recent away performances.
