Sassuolo are strong at home and Domenico Berardi’s return from injury is a big boost. I am overlooking Frosinone’s win at Fiorentina and backing a home win in the Coppa Italia.
HTH
Sassuolo have an 8-2 advantage against Frosinone alongside four draws. This will be the first clash in the Coppa Italia.
Sassuolo Strong at Home
Alberto Aquilani’s reign at Sassuolo got off to a winning start, beating Cesena 3-0 in the Coppa Italia. They had 18-9 shots and were hardly threatened at home.

Sassuolo made amends with a 2-1 home victory over Torino. Domenico Berardi came off the bench to net a deserved winner, his first appearance of the season due to an ankle injury.
