Europa League clash between Rapid Wien and Sassuolo, with all teams in Group F having 3 points after the first two rounds.
After playing some pretty good football in September, including a 3-2 home win over Genk in the Europa League, Rapid Vienna lost form and is currently on a 4 match winless run. They lost against Athletic Bilbao in the previous Europa League clash and the hosts are on the back of a 1-1 draw against Rheindorf Altach.
Sassuolo is coming after a 2-1 home win over Crotone, after previously losing 3 of the last 4 in all competitions. The visitors are scoring goals for fun at the moment, but their defense is leaking goals at an even higher rate and Sassuolo isn`t quite in great form. So far in this group Sassuolo defeated Bilbao 3-0 at home and lost away at Genk 1-3.

Both Rapid Wien and Sassuolo like to play offensive, direct football and their stats this season clearly confirm it.
Sassuolo has a goal difference of 11-13 in 8 Serie A matches and a goal difference of 4-3 in 2 Europa League matches.
Rapid Wien has a goal difference of 22-10 in 11 Bundesliga matches and a goal difference of 3-3 in 2 Europa League matches.
Both teams are in shaky form and leaking a lot of goals recently. In these circumstances, odds of almost evens on over 2,5 goals seem to be pretty tasty. I can see Rapid Wien playing their usual style of fast, direct football and we know that Sassuolo won`t come to Austria to defend, so we have all premises for an open game. With all teams in the group being tied with 3 points each, Rapid Wien and Sassuolo will both feel that they have a shot to win this game and get a foothold on the group.
My tip here is over 2,5 goals to be scored, simple bet really. Both to score might be a bit safer, but the difference in odds is also sensible. Prediction: Rapid Wien – Sassuolo 2-2.
Pick: over 2,5 goals
