Sassuolo, Recent FormThe 3-2 home defeat to Empoli will not have sat easily with the Sassuolo squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 54% possession and managed 19 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Empoli who had 14 attempts and 6 on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 5 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 15 goals in the same period. So far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 24 of their 25 games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.
On an individual basis, Andrea Pinamonti has scored in each of Sassuolo's last 4 league games at Mapei Stadium-Città del Tricolore.
Napoli, Recent FormNapoli manager Francesco Calzona will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Cagliari. Their share of possession in that meeting was 71%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Cagliari had 8 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Calzona will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 5 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Of their last 6 games played away from home, they've have been unable to score in 5 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Napoli, Victor Osimhen will be looking to add more goals against Sassuolo in this match.
It was one to forget for Sassuolo last time they met Napoli in the league, falling to a 2-0 defeat.
I Partenopei have managed to keep a clean sheet against Sassuolo in each of their previous 3 meetings. In the past 10 away matches at Sassuolo in the league, I Partenopei have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters. In their recent meetings Napoli have had no problem breaking down Sassuolo's defence, having found the back of the net 16 times in their last 5 games.
Napoli will be looking to continue their winning streak against Sassuolo, having won each of the last 4 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings.
Victor Osimhen is on a hot scoring streak against Sassuolo, having scored in each of Napoli's last 0 meetings with them.
With only Domenico Berardi (Knee) and Martin Erlić (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Alessio Dionisi will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Napoli manager Francesco Calzona ahead of this clash, with Cyril Ngonge (Physical discomfort) missing out, which gives Calzona a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
