This Monday, 12th December, Fiorentina will welcome Sassuolo in the 16th Round of Serie A, at 18:00, UK time. Considering the current form of the teams, the hosts are expected to win this meeting, but Sassuolo should not be neglected.
I hope for a proper start of this week and I believe Monday will be a productive day. This weekend was not so impressive with only 2 winning tickets out of 6 since Saturday evening. Anyway, single bets saved the day, since we managed 3/3 winning predictions at FC Koln vs Dortmund, including the correct score and also 3/3 green predictions at Lille vs Montpellier.
