Sassuolo and Brescia will square off in a Serie B round 26 clash on Saturday (February 15th). The game will be played at the Mapei Stadium.
The home side will be looking to build on the 3-0 away win they registered over Mantova. Armand Lauriente scored a brace to give the Neroverdi a two-goal lead by the 54th minute while Nicholas Pierini added a third in injury time.
Brescia, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a goalless draw at home to Salernitana last weekend.
The stalemate left them in 12th spot in the table, having garnered 29 points from 25 games. Sassuolo lead the way at the summit with 58 points to their name.

Sassuolo vs Brescia Prediction
Sassuolo saw their decade-long stay in Serie A end last season but Fabio Grosso's side are on course for an immediate return to the top flight. They hold a five-point advantage at the summit and a nine-point cushion over third-placed Spezia as they aim for automatic promotion. They have scored at least two goals in their last six home games and are unsurprisingly the heavy favorites in this game.
Brescia have struggled for victories this season and their four-point cushion over the bottom five will have them looking over their shoulders to avoid relegation. Rolando Maran's side have shown a penchant for draws, with seven of their last nine league games ending in a share of the spoils.
We are backing the home side to claim a comfortable victory with goals at both ends.
