Sassuolo Form and Lineup
The side under Fabio Grosso has looked inconsistent since the international break: they beat Cagliari 2:1 at home and then lost by the same scoreline away to Genoa. Andrea Pinamonti is in excellent form, having scored twice in the last three rounds, but there are several personnel issues: in the previous round Domenico Berardi was sent off and Josh Doig picked up his fourth yellow card.

Como 1907 Form and Lineup
Como 1907 went into the international break in fourth place with a four-point cushion, but a very different team has restarted the league campaign. An away draw with Udinese (0:0) and a 3:4 defeat to Inter have significantly worsened their position in the table. Poor finishing – 30 shots in total – and defensive lapses have really taken their toll. Now there is no margin for error for Cesc Fabregas and his players.

Como 1907 have scored at least twice in six of their last eight matches.
Nico Paz and Anastasios Douvikas have scored 11 goals each – the second-best mark in the Serie A.
