Sassuolo preview: Berardi's absence adds to midfield suspension
Sassuolo remain stretched by injuries, most notably the continued absence of talisman Domenico Berardi, leaving them short of creativity and goal threat in the final third. Their problems are further compounded by a midfield suspension, with Kristian Thorstvedt ruled out after collecting another booking in Milan.
With Thorstvedt unavailable, Aster Vranckx could be handed a rare start in the centre of the park, potentially partnering Kone and Nemanja Matic. The reshuffle places added responsibility on Sassuolo’s remaining attackers to compensate for Berardi’s absence and maintain their attacking output.
Predicted lineup: Muric (GK), Walukiewicz, Izdes, Muharemovic, Doig, Vranckx, Matic, Kone, Volpato, Pinamonti & Lauriente
Last five fixtures
- 14.12.25 – AC Milan 2–2 Sassuolo
- 06.12.25 – Sassuolo 3–1 Fiorentina
- 28.11.25 – Como 2–0 Sassuolo
- 24.11.25 – Sassuolo 2–2 Pisa
- 09.11.25 – Atalanta 0–3 Sassuolo
Torino preview: Selection headache for manager
Torino arrive with encouraging attacking options, as Dušan Zapata boasts an excellent record against Sassuolo, having scored ten times against the Neroverdi, including in their last meeting at the Mapei Stadium in February 2024. His experience and physical presence could once again prove decisive.
However, Zapata is no longer assured of a starting role, with Giovanni Simeone now fully fit and pushing to partner Che Adams in attack. At the back, Ardian Ismajli returned to the squad last week, offering a timely boost. However, Torino are still weakened defensively after Saúl Coco and Adam Masina departed for Africa Cup of Nations duty.
Predicted lineup: Israel (GK), Tameze, Maripan, Ismajli, Pedersen, Casadei, Asllani, Vlasic, Lazaro, Adams & Zapata
Last five fixtures
- 13.12.25 – Torino 1–0 Cremonese
- 08.12.25 – Torino 2–3 AC Milan
- 30.11.25 – Lecce 2–1 Torino
- 24.11.25 – Torino 1–5 Como
- 08.11.25 – Juventus 0–0 Torino
Player to watch: Andrea Pinamonti
Andrea Pinamonti will be Sassuolo’s main attacking threat in this game. The forward has been in excellent form recently, contributing four goals and two assists this season. With Domenico Berardi unavailable, Pinamonti’s involvement will be vital in driving the home side’s attack and helping secure a crucial victory.
