Preview

Match preview

Sassuolo host Torino in Serie A matchday two, with both clubs looking to rebound from opening-weekend 2-1 defeats against Atalanta and AC Milan respectively. Both teams sit side by side in the table, but early-season momentum will be critical as they seek their first league points of the campaign.

Torino arrive with a notable historical advantage in this matchup, having won five and drawn four of the last ten head-to-head meetings across all venues. Furthermore, Sassuolo have failed to record a victory in their previous five home encounters against Torino, picking up three draws and suffering two defeats.

Sassuolo are also dealing with considerable squad absences, with several key individuals including Domenico Berardi, Daniel Boloca, and Sebastian Walukiewicz sidelined through injury. Given Torino's resilient head-to-head record and Sassuolo's reduced depth, the visitors appear well positioned to secure at least a point.

  1. Torino are unbeaten in nine of their last ten head-to-head matches against Sassuolo (5 wins, 4 draws).
