✅  Stats before the game.  Napoli have conceded at least two goals in both matches against Sassuolo last season (five in total), as many times as in the previous 14 matches against the neroverdi in the top flight.  Sassuolo are unbeaten in two matches against Napoli in Serie A (1V, 1N) and could avoid defeat for three straight games in the top flight for the first time against Napoli.    In all the last six crossings at Mapei Stadium in Serie A, Sassuolo and Napoli have found the goal. In the same period, Napoli have only won one of these six matches (4N, 1P) after having achieved success in the first two occasions.
In this championship, Sassuolo have already beaten Juventus and Milan: in the last eight seasons only one team has won against Bianconeri, Rossoneri and Napoli in a first round: Lazio in 2019/20. Sassuolo have scored at least two goals in all their last three league games; has not recorded a longer streak with more than one goal in the competition since November 2020, when he reached five (winning the last 2-0 against Napoli).

Napoli have scored seven goals from outside the box in this league, more than any other formation in the top five European tournaments; also in the last season (2020/21) the Azzurri collected this record at continental level (22 goals from outside).

👉Lineup SASSUOLO (4-3-3): Consigli; Toljan, Chiriches, G. Ferrari, Rogerio; Frattesi. M. Lopez, Traore; D. Berardi, Scamacca, Raspadori.
