We head to Italy and the Stadio Arechi for a relegation battle this Friday. Salernitana prop up the entire division in last place with just 14 points from 30 games. Overall form shows 2 wins, 8 draws and 20 defeats. Home form reads 1 win, 4 draws and 10 defeats. Their last win in any competition was last year! 30th December. Since then, they have 2 draws and 11 defeats. Sassuolo are 1 place above the home side but 10 points ahead, they are only 1 point from safety. Overall form for them reads 6 wins, 6 draws and 18 defeats. Away form shows 2 wins, 2 draws and 11 losses.  Recent form 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses.

Team news:  Home side misses Fazio for sure while have doubts over Kastanos and Dia. Sassuolo are without Candreva but no other injury issues.  

Head-to-head statistics: 10 games – 3 wins Salernitana, 2 draws and 5 wins Sassuolo.

Betting selection – Salernitana look doomed with just 8 games left. This is a real must win game for the visitors and they should have too much for Salernitana. I take a Sassuolo 0.0/-0.5 at 1.91. We get half stake returned if game is a draw.
