Coppa Italia, Tuesday, December 3rd, 2024 at 9:00 p.m.
Do you want to hear something crazy? The guests from Sassuolo have won three of their last four away games against AC Milan at the San Siro. If there is no potential for a surprise in this Coppa Italia game, then I don’t know!
The bookmakers, meanwhile, clearly see the “Rossoneri” as the clear favorite.
Personally, however, in my AC Milan Sassuolo prediction, I believe that the second division side could cause a minor sensation on Tuesday under the leadership of their reinstated figurehead.
AC Milan are currently making a rather mixed impression. Sure, they recently pulled off a 3-2 win over Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League, but it remains to be seen how convincing that was.
Their 3-3 draw against Cagliari a few weeks ago was an impressive illustration of their vulnerability at the back, and I think some of you have also noticed that.
You know, Paulo Fonseca is not without reason criticized. In my opinion, Milan lack the finishing touches under him – and whether the Portuguese football coach will stay until the end of the season is anything but certain.
They often grind out results, but they are not really convincing. That could be a problem against a well-performing opponent like Sassuolo – even if they are now only playing in the second division!

The Neroverdi, as the Sassuolo boys are known, are in absolutely top form at the moment.
After their relegation, they were able to keep key players like Laurienté and Thorstvedt, which is now paying off. And then, of course, there is Domenico Berardi – the international is back after his injury break and has an immense influence.
Did you know that Sassuolo have won every game Berardi has played in since returning from injury? The only game they have drawn is a 2-2 draw with Juve Stabia, but he was only on the bench for that one. Otherwise, they have won seven and drawn one with him in the lineup!
Particularly impressive is the fact that Sassuolo have already knocked out a Serie A team, US Lecce, in the second round of the Coppa Italia – and that was without their superstar.
For me, this is a team that you should not underestimate. I would keep an eye on at least the promotion of the green-blacks as a long-term bet on every suitable betting platform.
But can the “Neroverdi” also stand up to the great AC Milan at the San Siro next Tuesday?
The statistics at least suggest that in their last seven competitive games against the “Rossoneri”, they have a better record than their upcoming opponents themselves – three wins, two draws, two defeats.
Berardi has a special connection at the San Siro anyway. You surely remember the 5-2 in January 2023, right?
Two goals and an assist – that was his game! If anyone can shake Milan’s back line, it’s him. And let’s be honest, the current AC Milan Sassuolo odds only favor bets on the guests anyway.
The betting providers with PayPal seem to be overestimating Milan excessively, which could be a great opportunity for you to consider an outsider bet.
I don’t know what to tell you, except that the bet available in the Bet365 app that “Berardi will score a goal” really intrigues me.
As I have already explained to you, the national player is the absolute terror of all AC fans. Nevertheless, the bookmakers have set his goal rate at an almost gigantic 6.00 on average. I don’t hesitate for a second and go for it straight away!
In my opinion, there is simply no reason to bet on Milan – the uncertainty is too great and the payout too small.
But with a monster quote of around 5.50, it is worth taking a closer look at the AC Milan Sassuolo odds for the second division club to advance, because these are far more lucrative!
Conclusion: I take the view that the Milanese can only disappoint in this cup game.
Domenico Berardi is fit again and his return has made the “Neroverdi” offense even more dangerous than it already was.
So far, there is a reason why the second division club has won all of its games in which the national player has been on the pitch since his return.
My AC Milan Sassuolo betting tip: Double chance X2.
