"Starting with the hosts, while Sassuolo might have only made their Serie A return this season, Fabio Grosso's side have rightfully received a string of plaudits from across Italy's elite. Opening Friday's showdown scrapping it out in the top-half of the table, the Neroverdi find the mood in their camp and they should be smelling the chance to make another statement here. Last seen clinching an eye-catching 2-1 victory away at Udinese, Sassuolo have won three of their previous four Serie A appearances."
"Shown what was a costly first-half booking away at Udinese last week, Bosnia & Herzegovina International Tarik Muharemovic will miss out through suspension here. However, serving his own respective one-match ban last time out, former Manchester United ace Nemanja Matic could be handed a full recall. Not featuring since the end of September, academy graduate Edoardo Pieragnolo remains on the sidelines with a long-term knee injury. Recording a first Serie A strike since the start of November last week, former Inter Milan youngster Andrea Pinamonti will spearhead Sassuolo's attack."
Sassuolo have returned to Serie A and earned plaudits, winning three of their last four matches, including a 2-1 victory at Udinese and a 1-0 win over Verona on October 3rd. Fabio Grosso's side aim to extend their top-half buffer at the Mapei Stadium on Friday. Tarik Muharemovic is suspended after a booking, while Nemanja Matic could return from a one-match ban. Edoardo Pieragnolo remains sidelined with a long-term knee injury. Andrea Pinamonti, who recorded his first Serie A strike since November last week, will spearhead Sassuolo's attack. Verona sit bottom under interim boss Paolo Sammarco after a 2-1 loss to Parma.
