Sassuolo have lost only one of their last nine games, while winning six during that period. Since the 2-0 defeat to Napoli mid-way through February, Neroverdi have gone on a four-game winning streak, defeating the likes of Lecce, Cremonese, AS Roma and Spezia. The Watermelon Peel edged past Spezia in their last outings thanks to Domenico Berardi’s lone goal from the penalty spot. It was their 10th top flight victory of the campaign. The Black and Greens are currently sitting 12 points behind the top-six, and a victory on Monday will help them leapfrog Torino and Udinese into the 10th position. Meanwhile, Neroverdi secured a dramatic win over the Bull in the reverse fixture in September last year, courtesy of Agustin Alvarez’s lone goal three minutes into the injury time in Turin.
Torino, on the other hand, have been victorious in their previous visit to Reggio Emilia and have lost only once in their last nine games at Stadio Citta del Tricolore. Prior to the loss to Napoli, Ivan Juric’ side claimed back-to-back wins against Bologna (1-0) and Lecce (2-0). First half efforts from Wilfried Singo and Antonio Sanabria helped the Bull secure all three points against Lecce and register their 10th Serie A-win of the season. Meanwhile, the Maroons have collected 18 points from a possible 42 on the road this term.
