Sassuolo are currently in 18th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The Neroverdi slumped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Atalanta in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.

Napoli, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive over the past year. The Neapolitan outfit eased past Frosinone by a comfortable 3-1 margin last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
