Sassuolo form and stats

4-6-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Sassuolo so far this season.

Sassuolo lost their last game at Torino (placed 17th) after a 2-3 scoreline. Before that game, the 3-2 home victory against Hellas Verona.

Did Sassuolo get overconfident in their match against Torino? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 2-0 lead to end up with a 2-3 defeat. Andrea Consigli had a busy but productive day in the Torino match. Despite making eight saves the loss could not be prevented. Heartbreak for Sassuolo in their last match as Torino's S. Zaza scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

The Sassuolo fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 21 goals in 13 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 20 goals have been conceded.
