-----------------------------
Sassuolo will look to build on their impressive Serie A upset last week when they face winless Monza. After a thrilling victory over one of Italy’s biggest clubs, the Neroverdi now travel to face the newly promoted side.

Team Analysis:
Sassuolo stunned Juventus with a dramatic late winner, lifting Alberto Aquilani’s side to seven points from four Serie A matches despite an eight-game winless away run. Monza, meanwhile, have struggled badly with three defeats and a draw this season, including a 3-2 loss to Lecce, while set-piece defending remains a major weakness.

Player Situation:
Sassuolo must choose between Sebastiano Esposito and Kieron Bowie up front, with Domenico Berardi providing experience despite a lengthy injury list that includes Jay Idzes. Monza also have several absentees, but Gustavo Varela has returned and could feature alongside Patrick Cutrone or Dany Mota in attack.

Result Prediction:
Sassuolo head into the clash with plenty of confidence after their dramatic win over Juventus last week. Monza could struggle to contain them, with the visitors showing stronger form and greater cohesion.

Predicted Result: Monza 1-2 Sassuolo.
