Sassuolo host Monza at the Mapei Stadium on Monday (October 2) in Serie A action.
The hosts endured a slow start to their season but have had two huge results in the last week to climb up the table. They picked up a 2-1 comeback win over leaders Inter Milan in their last game.
Nedim Bajrami and Domenico Berardi got on the scoresheet after the restart to overturn a first-half deficit. Earlier, in the week, they floored Juventus 4-2 at home. Sassuolo are ninth in the league table with nine points from six games.
Monza, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season and find themselves in the bottom half of the standings. They drew goalless with Bologna in their last game, failing to create enough noteworthy chances. Monza are 15th in the points table with six points from six games.
