Trailing two points behind visitors Empoli in the Serie A standings, Sassuolo will seek just their second win of the year on Saturday.

Some dismal form has seen the Neroverdi slip towards the relegation zone, which their Tuscan counterparts recently climbed out of with a five-game unbeaten streak.

We say: Sassuolo 2-2 Empoli

This fixture has occurred most often in Serie A history without ever resulting in a draw, but after 13 straight games with a winner, Saturday's contest could finally produce a stalemate. Sassuolo rarely keep a clean sheet, while Empoli are full of confidence and tend to fare better on the road.

Salernitana vs. Monza (Saturday, 5.00pm)

Fabio Liverani will welcome a much simpler Serie A game after last week's baptism of fire when Salernitana host Monza at Stadio Arechi on Saturday.

The Granata's third head coach of the season was handed a debut at the league's champions-elect last weekend, and he seeks a win the second time around in gameweek 26's encounter with a side in high spirits after round 25's record win over AC Milan.

We say: Salernitana 1-1 Monza

Having had a week to work with his new players, Liverani could secure a point on his home debut as Salernitana boss, sharing the spoils against a low-scoring visiting side.

Genoa vs. Udinese (Saturday, 7.45pm)

Continuing their impressive comeback campaign, mid-table Genoa welcome Serie A strugglers Udinese to Stadio Luigi Ferraris on Saturday.

While the Grifone held reigning champions Napoli to a draw last time out and are closing in on safety, their visitors have won just three times all season and are scrapping to avoid relegation.

We say: Genoa 1-1 Udinese

A fifth straight league draw between these clubs could be on the cards at Marassi, as neither side is particularly prolific, and they are well-matched in many respects.
