In attack Milan average 10.71 shots away and 3.88 shots on target with a 14% conversion rate, translating to 1.53 goals away; Sassuolo at home average 10.29 shots, 3.53 on target and a 12% conversion with 1.24 goals.

Considering superior defense, higher efficiency and league position, I back AC Milan to win (2).
