The action continues in round 10 of the Italian Serie A as Sassuolo play host to Genoa at the Mapei Stadium on Monday. Domenico Criscito’s men head into the game as one of just four sides yet to taste victory in the league and will be keen to end this dire run.
Sassuolo returned to winning ways on Thursday when they held their own to see out a 2-1 victory over Cagliari at the Unipol Domus.
This followed a 1-0 home defeat at the hands of AS Roma on October 26, a result which saw their three-game unbeaten run in the league come to an end.
Sassuolo have picked up four wins and one draw from their nine league matches so far to collect 13 points and sit 11th in the standings, level on points with Atalanta and Torino.
On the other hand, Genoa continue to struggle for results at the wrong end of the table as they fell to a 2-0 defeat against Cremonense at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium.
Criscito’s side have failed to win their nine Serie A matches this term, losing six and claiming three draws to sit rock-bottom in the league standings.
Genoa’s underwhelming start to the campaign has been owing to their lack of firepower in attack, where they have netted the fewest number of goals so far (4).
