【Strength Comparison】
Sassuolo: Typically resilient at home with an attacking mindset, but recent seasons have shown inconsistency in defense. When pressed, Sassuolo can exploit spaces with quick passes and movement, yet they often concede against stronger teams.
Roma: Generally one of the stronger sides in Serie A, boasting solid defensive structure and productive forward options. They tend to control midfield and create chances through wide areas and runs behind the back line.
Key takeaway: Roma usually brings greater breadth and quality across the squad, while Sassuolo can trouble opponents on good days, especially at home.

【Head-to-Head】
In recent years, Roma have held a clear advantage in this matchup, with Sassuolo winning only a couple of times and Roma collecting more wins across both home and away venues.
The clashes have produced a mix of comfortable Roma victories and tightly contested affairs, often decided by small margins and game-state decisions.
General trend: Roma enters as the favorite based on historical results and squad depth, though Sassuolo can complicate matters on their home ground.

【Key Factors】
Home advantage: If Sassuolo host, the atmosphere and intimate pitch can help them press and counter effectively.
Midfield battle: The team that dominates the center can dictate tempo and create clearer chances.
Counter-attacks: Roma’s pace in transition can threaten Sassuolo if the hosts push forward aggressively.
Set pieces: Dead-ball situations could swing the game, given both sides’ physical presence.
Form and injuries: Recent results and any lineup changes will influence the balance, especially midfield and forward line rotations.

【Expert Prediction】
Expect a competitive encounter with Roma favored due to overall quality and proven records in this fixture. A narrow Roma win (1-0 or 2-1) is plausible, but Sassuolo’s home resilience could yield a draw or a modest upset if they capitalize on counter opportunities and keep Roma’s attacking moves in check.
