Roma vs Sassuolo Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 7 November 2026
📢 Roma host Sassuolo in Serie A's 11th round. The Romans have made an excellent start to the season, are firmly among the leaders and clearly intend to keep fighting for the top places. Things are very different for the visitors: Sassuolo have fallen into a prolonged slump, have not tasted victory for some time and cannot seem to break their run of poor results. Can the Neroverdi spring a surprise, or will the Wolves once again show their class? We'll find out at the Stadio Olimpico.
Sassuolo rarely beat Roma
📊 Roma and Sassuolo have met 24 times in recent years, with the Romans holding a commanding advantage. The Giallorossi have won 13 times, while the Neroverdi have won just twice, with another 9 matches ending in draws. Roma also underlined their superiority last season, winning both meetings without conceding - first away (1-0) and then at home (2-0).
Head-to-head statistics Roma - Sassuolo

Roma are tearing up Serie A
Even the most flattering superlatives seem insufficient to describe Roma’s performances in this season’s Italian league. They are playing superb football, picking up points consistently, scoring plenty of goals and deservedly sitting among the Serie A leaders. After ten rounds, Roma are third in the table with 24 points. Last weekend, they once again showed their quality, thrashing Udinese 5-2 away from home. The result was effectively settled in the first half, such was the visitors’ superiority.
Roma have not yet managed to carry that form into the Champions League, though. They have repeatedly let victories slip in matches they seemed to have completely under control. In mid-October, Roma somehow lost 4-3 at home to Real Madrid despite leading 3-1 by the 83rd minute. A similar collapse came the other day away to a struggling Manchester United, where they lost 3-2. Roma started brilliantly, scored twice early on, were clearly superior to their opponents and went into the break with a comfortable lead. But after the interval, they looked like a different team: Roma failed to register a single shot in the second half, allowed their opponents ten shots with an xG of 2.46, and ultimately surrendered their entire lead.
Match Results: Roma

Sassuolo cannot arrest their slide
For Sassuolo, the situation is quite the opposite, and their supporters have little left to cheer about. They go into the upcoming match on a run of four consecutive defeats. That poor spell has seriously damaged the Neroverdi’s league position: they have dropped to 17th with just eight points. The club are now close to the relegation zone, and their prospects of emerging from the crisis remain unclear.
In the previous round, Sassuolo had a good chance to end their losing run, as they hosted Fiorentina, who are also far from their best form. Yet even against opponents with problems of their own, the Neroverdi looked distinctly weak. The visitors were noticeably better than the hosts, regularly created dangerous chances and ultimately earned a deserved 4-2 win.
Match Results: Sassuolo
Total Goals Prediction
Despite their serious difficulties in picking up points, Sassuolo’s matches have been entertaining and high-scoring. The Neroverdi regularly find ways to score, but are almost incapable of keeping a clean sheet. Both teams have scored in 9 of Sassuolo’s last 10 Serie A matches. Given Roma’s high scoring rate and defensive vulnerability, there is every reason to expect this trend to continue. Our pick is Both Teams to Score - Yes at odds of 1.71*.
Corners Prediction
Roma and Sassuolo are not among Serie A’s leaders for corners won, but their figures are not particularly low either. Roma average 5.8 corners per match, ranking fifth in the league, while the Neroverdi sit 13th with 4.1. Our pick is Total Corners - Over 8.5 at odds of 1.53*.
Yellow Cards Prediction
Despite their prolonged run of poor results, Sassuolo rarely play roughly or pick up many bookings. The statistics support this trend: in 13 of their last 14 matches, the Neroverdi received no more than two yellow cards. Therefore, excessive roughness from the visitors should not be expected in the upcoming match either. Our bet is Sassuolo Team Total Yellow Cards - Under 2.5 at odds of 1.39*.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
According to the bookmakers, Roma are clear favourites for the upcoming match, and in the current circumstances it is hard to argue with that assessment. Almost every factor favours Roma: their unbeaten record in the league, their opponents’ prolonged slump, their clear advantage in head-to-head meetings and home advantage. The “Wolves” will also surely want to make amends to their fans for the painful defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League. Our main bet is therefore Roma - Handicap -1.5. Predicted score: 4:1.
