Sassuolo

Bologna have lost consecutive matches by narrow 1-0 margins against tough opposition in Lazio and Atalanta, but their defensive structure has remained relatively compact. In head-to-head fixtures, Bologna have avoided defeat in each of their last six matches against Sassuolo, winning three and drawing three. Meanwhile, Sassuolo arrive with substantial squad depletion, missing several players including D. Boloca, S. Walukiewicz, and F. Cande through injury. Backing Bologna on the double chance accounts for both a home victory and a shared result while Bologna look to open their scoring account.

Sassuolo have shown solid home form, recording victories over Torino (2-1) and Cesena (3-0) in their last two matches on home soil. While Frosinone arrive fresh off an impressive 3-0 away win at Fiorentina, Sassuolo hold the upper hand historically with four wins from eight past meetings compared to Frosinone's two. Backing Sassuolo to win or draw covers two of the three possible outcomes in a closely matched knockout encounter where both sides have regular scoring capability.

Torino hold a strong record against Sassuolo, remaining unbeaten in nine of the last ten meetings overall (five wins, four draws) and going unbeaten in each of their last five visits to Sassuolo (two wins, three draws). Additionally, Sassuolo face an extensive injury list featuring seven players, which tilts the probabilistic edge toward Torino avoiding defeat.

Atalanta have won four of their last five home head-to-head encounters against Sassuolo. In contrast, Sassuolo arrive heavily depleted by injuries to key personnel including Domenico Berardi and Andrea Pinamonti, while having conceded nine goals across their last five matches.
