Frosinone and Sassuolo face off at the Benito Stirpe
Frosinone and Sassuolo will meet again after the Neroverdi won a 5-4 thriller in the home leg of their Coppa Italia 2026/2027 tie last month, with Frosinone winning 2 of the last 5 head-to-heads and the Neroverdi taking 3 wins (D0, L2). The Canarini will be looking to extend their record of 2 wins in the last 5 head-to-heads against Sassuolo, while Massimiliano Alvini's men have won 3 of their last 5, lost once and drawn once.
These two sides will certainly be familiar with each other, so a lot depends on what kind of gameplan each manager decides on this time around. Frosinone have recorded 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in their last 5 games, while Sassuolo have the same results (W3, D1, L1). The Canarini should be full of confidence here at home, where they have won 2 and lost 1 of their 3 trips to the Benito Stirpe in Serie A 2026/2027, while the Neroverdi have a worse record away from home this season (W0, D1, L2).
Canarini can continue strong home streak
Odds and markets
Frosinone are the likelier winner in this matchup, so we're avoiding the result markets here. The Canarini are 2.42 favourites for the win, which is certainly generous, as Sassuolo are 2.68, while the draw is 3.55. There is a clear alternative approach here and that is BTTS (both teams to score) at 1.45, which looks worth considering based on the nature of these two teams and their numbers this season. Over 2.5 goals at 1.57 is also attractive in a game that is highly likely to feature plenty of bite and chances.
Key players and tactics
Alberto Aquilani's men are more patient, working the ball through wide chains and rotations in the half-spaces, but it should be interesting to see how they fare against Frosinone's all-gas pressing game.
