How have Frosinone been playing?
Frosinone have won three of three at home in their last six games and none of their three away. That split is the clearest thing about them.
Six days before this match they were beaten 0-3 at SSC Napoli, the only game in the six in which they failed to score. At home it has been straightforward: 2-0 against Como, 26 days before this fixture, 3-2 against Venezia 40 days out, and a 2-1 friendly win over Benevento 14 days before kick-off. There was also a 1-1 draw away at Genoa, 34 days before this game.
Twelve scored, 12 conceded, and three or more goals in four of the six. Not a side that keeps things quiet.
How have Sassuolo been playing?
Sassuolo have not kept a clean sheet in their last six matches, and both teams have scored in every one of them. They have 14 goals and 12 against to show for it.
Five days before this match they drew 1-1 at home with AC Milan after going behind. The 3-2 home win over Juventus, 33 days before this fixture, remains their best result of the run. Their only defeat was 1-2 at Monza, 28 days before this game, and they drew 2-2 at Bologna 40 days out.
The problem is the travel. Sassuolo have won none of their two away games in the six, and three of their four home matches.
Frosinone vs Sassuolo: the last meeting and team news
The Coppa Italia tie between them on 2 September, 44 days before this match, ended Sassuolo 5-4 Frosinone at Sassuolo. Both defences had an evening they would rather forget, and nothing in either side's form since suggests either has tightened up.
Team news
Frosinone are without Daniel Bîrligea and Florian Grillitsch, both injured, with Palmisani expected in goal behind a 4-2-3-1 (The Stats Zone). Sassuolo have the longer list: Jay Idzes, Yeferson Paz, Ismaël Koné and Daniel Boloca are all out, and Edoardo Pieragnolo is a fitness doubt, with Domenico Berardi and Armand Laurienté expected either side of a front three (The Stats Zone). Defender Fedde Leysen damaged the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the Milan game on 11 October; the club's medical bulletin confirmed surgery is needed and several months of recovery will follow (Goal).
