U.S. Sassuolo is a club that has been around for over 100 years in Italian soccer, though they are very new to the top level of the Italian league pyramid. As a result, the Serie A odds for this club are not promising from a championship perspective, but they have proven capable of sticking around in the top-flight despite that. Here, we look at the history of the club, the all-time Sassuolo stats leaders, and other components those doing Sassuolo betting will want to think about.
Sassuolo General info
Sassuolo is based in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, and they play the home matches on the Sassuolo schedule at Mapei Stadium. That venue holds over 21,000 fans for the club’s Serie A matchups, and it is also the home of Reggiana of Serie C. The club currently resides in Serie A, having played their first match at this level in 2013.
Sassuolo History
Sassuolo does not have a large sample size behind their Serie A betting stats, as the club had not been a part of the league before 2013. Their rise up the Italian club football ladder began after World War II, when the club climbed up from Serie D all the way to Serie A over a 70-year period. The club hadn’t entered Serie B until 2008, and their meteoric rise over the last decade and a half has been impressive to anyone paying attention.
Sassuolo Records
Looking at all-time Sassuolo stats, the club’s leader in appearances is Francesco Magnanelli with 481 appearances for the club between 2005 to 2022. Active players Domenico Berardi and Andrea Consigli are second and third on that list, as they are the only other players in club history to register at least 300 appearances for the team.
The all-time leading goal scorer at Sassuolo is also Berardi, who has scored 122 times for the club from 2012 to now. Given how little time this club has spent in the top divisions in Italy, it is not surprising that he is the only player to ever score 100 goals for the club.
Championship won by Sassuolo
So far, Sassuolo has not finished at the top of the Serie A standings in its history. They have won the Serie B title in the 2012-13 season, which is the most high-profile title they have won so far.
Historical Events
When it comes to the greatest happenings in Sassuolo history, their promotion to Serie A has to be at the top of the list. Beyond that, their qualification for the Europa League group stage in the 2016-17 season was a highlight. The team had to win two qualifying rounds to make it to the group stage, which they did successfully, even though they finished bottom of their group in that competition.

Sassuolo’s Best Coaches
The best manager in the history of Sassuolo would have to be Eusebio Di Francesco. He was the manager in charge when the team was promoted to Serie A, and he was the manager when the team qualified for the Europa League. For a team that lacks a rich managerial history, those accomplishments are as good as it has been thus far.
