Comprehensive Prediction Analysis
Sassuolo
Bouncing straight back from a 5-0 defeat to league leaders Inter Milan, Sassuolo also recovered from going a goal down inside 10 minutes to beat Udinese last weekend.Two members of their potent front three were on target in the second half, with strikes from Andrea Pinamonti and Armand Lauriente securing the Emilian club's first top-flight victory in Udine. Having drawn level on points with their hosts, Fabio Grosso's team now sit 10th in the Serie A standings, even surpassing his own pre-season expectations. Last term's Serie B champions are comfortably on course for survival, and another win on Friday would take them up to eighth place - for one day, at least.The Neroverdi now finish their February schedule by trying to do the double over Verona: Pinamonti scored the only goal when they met at Stadio Bentegodi earlier this season.

Hellas Verona
While Sassuolo are on track for a serene mid-table finish, Verona are in serious trouble, sitting bottom of Serie A with just 15 points from 25 matches.The recent sacking of Paolo Zanetti and Paolo Sammarco's interim appointment has not had the desired effect, with a goalless draw at home to 19th-placed Pisa being followed by last week's painful loss in Parma. Top scorer Gift Orban was controversially dismissed for dissent after just 10 minutes, but Hellas had fought hard to reach second-half stoppage time level at 1-1 before their hosts produced a dramatic late winner.So, the Gialloblu have just one win and eight goals to show from a dozen away fixtures, and they are now winless in 10 games overall. Nine points from safety, their last victory anywhere came back in December, leaving Sammarco with a tough task to turn things around.
