Como - Sassuolo

Como arrive at this matchday 8 fixture at Stadio G. Sinigaglia aiming to build on a clinical 3-1 victory over Fiorentina last weekend. The hosts have shown significant attacking intent recently, though they will have to navigate this encounter without the injured Trevoh Chalobah and Assane Diao. The expected XI, anchored by Jean Butez in goal and a midfield quartet including Maxence Caqueret and Nico Paz, will look to control the tempo against a visiting side that has struggled to find defensive consistency in recent weeks.

Sassuolo travel to the Stadio G. Sinigaglia following a difficult 4-2 defeat against Frosinone, a result that highlights their current vulnerability at the back. With Fedde Leysen and Jay Idzes sidelined, the visitors will rely heavily on the experience of Domenico Berardi and Nemanja Matic to steady their performance. These sides last met in April 2026, when Sassuolo secured a 2-1 victory.
