Sassuolo – Napoli Tip Serie A, Matchday 1 on Saturday, 08/23/25 at 6:30 p.m.
What kind of players did SSC sign in the summer? Sure, Victor Osimhen is finally gone – but if we’re honest, the Nigerian turned his back on SSC a long time ago.
The Serie A title holders have won their last five direct encounters against this opponent, most of them by a clear margin. The last meeting between the two sides ended in a 6-1 victory for Napoli.
According to my Sassuolo vs. Napoli prediction, the newly promoted side has no chance. If you also want to place successful soccer bets, you should be aware that the hosts are unlikely to get anything out of this game against such superior opposition!
My Sassuolo Napoli prediction: SSC win & both teams to score
Here are the reasons for my prediction:
- Napoli has won the last 5 head-to-head matches!
- SSC has lost only 1 of its last 12 Serie A away games!
- Sassuolo has a tough task as a promoted team!
Sassuolo vs. Napoli AI predictions:
The Sassuolo Napoli AI prediction from ChatGPT was the first prediction for a Serie A game that I requested from the AI assistant this season. The result is certainly impressive.
However, Domenico Berardi scoring at odds of around 4.10 is a tip that is less based on data. The former Italian international scored only six goals for Sassuolo in the last Serie B season.
Nevertheless, he is one of the most active players and if something happens against SSC on Saturday, it will probably be through him!
Predicted chance of winning:
| Sassuolo win |
Draw |
Napoli win |
| 31.5% |
47.3% |
21.2% |
Both teams to score at odds of around 1.98 would definitely be my bold combination bet for now.
There have been “BTS” in 8 of the last 9 matches between these two teams at the Mapei Stadium.
A Napoli win is ultimately the safe AI tip at odds of around 1.57, which should not be missing from the betting slip of risk-averse sports betting fans. Historically, SSC always plays particularly well against promoted teams.
What you need to consider when betting on Sassuolo vs. Napoli
- There have been BTS in 7 of the 8 matches between these two teams that took place in Sassuolo

- The last meeting between these two sides in February 2024 ended in a 6-1 win for SSC
