Sassuolo – Bologna

Sassuolo host a struggling Bologna side, hoping to extend their early‑season surge. Sitting ninth with seven points from two wins and a draw, the home team leads the table on a slim 8‑7 goal margin, while Bologna languish in 17th place with just a single point after three defeats and a 2‑5 deficit. The clash pits Sassuolo’s modest offensive edge against a Bologna defense that has already conceded five, setting the stage for a potentially decisive encounter in the fight for European spots versus a battle for survival.
