Ruan - Available versus Lecce Ruan (lower leg) has recovered ahead of Saturday's match against Lecce, coach Alessio Dionisi announced.

Impact Ruan limped off early in the last game, but it was nothing more than a knock. He'll stay in the XI over Gianmarco Ferrari if he's close to 100 percent. He has posted nine clearances, eight interceptions, four tackles, and two blocks in the last five games, with no clean sheets.

OCTOBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Matheus Henrique - Diagnosed with thigh injury Henrique sustained a biceps femoris strain in the left thigh, Sassuolo announced.

Impact Henrique left the last game early, and his problem is more severe than anticipated, although the break will help limit the time missed. Kristjan Thorsvedt and Uros Racic will fill in while he's sidelined.

OCTOBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Matias Vina - Creates three chances versus Monza Vina won three of four tackles and six duels, created three scoring chances, and had one cross (one accurate) in Monday's 0-1 defeat to Monza.

OCTOBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Armand Lauriente - Wasteful against Monza Lauriente generated four shots (two on goal), five crosses (zero accurate), three chances created, and two corners in Monday's 0-1 defeat against Monza.

He has scored and assisted once and added 17 shots (six on target) and ten chances created in the last five matches. Sassuolo will visit Lecce Friday.

Domenico Berardi - Puts up numbers despite Monza loss Berardi generated four shots (two on goal), five crosses (one accurate), three chances created, and three corners in Monday's 0-1 loss against Monza.

Impact Berardi was his usual self and was the leader in multiple offensive stats along with Armand Lauriente, but neither managed to put one past Michele Di Gregorio. He has scored four times and added one assist, 16 shots (ten on target), and 13 chances created in five games. Sassuolo will visit Lecce Friday.

OCTOBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Andrea Consigli - Beaten once by Monza Consigli made three saves and one clearance and conceded one goal in Monday's 0-1 loss to Monza.

He has yet to keep a clean sheet and has surrendered seven goals and made 12 saves in five appearances. Sassuolo will visit Lecce Friday.

Matheus Henrique - Leaves Monza game early Henrique created one chance, won two duels, and had two successful take-ons before subbing off late in Monday's 0-1 loss to Monza due to cramps, Sky Italy informs.

Impact Henrique had an underwhelming performance and didn't manage to finish the game due to fatigue. While he appears to have avoided an injury, another short turnaround might force him to come off the bench Friday versus Lecce. Morten Thorsby or Samu Castillejo would make the XI if that were the case. He has logged an assist and added seven chances created, two off-target shots, and one corner in the last five matches.

OCTOBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruan - Bows out early against Monza Ruan had two clearances, one block, and one interception in Monday's 0-1 loss to Monza before coming off due to a lower leg injury, Sky Italy informs.

Impact Ruan had a decent showing in his return to the XI even though Sassuolo conceded but couldn't continue after a collision with an opponent. With Mattia Viti (thigh) also on the mend, Gian Marco Ferrari got the call to replace him and that would be the case again versus Lecce Friday if the problem was substantial.

Andrea Pinamonti - Subs off against Monza Pinamonti took three shots (one on target), was dispossessed twice, and had one clearance in Monday's game versus Monza before asking to come out due to a headache, Gianluca Di Mar...

Impact Pinamonti didn't have a good showing and was forced off by a migraine. He was replaced by Samuele Mulattieri. It's unlikely the problem will cost him time going forward. Sassuolo will host Monza Friday. He has scored four goals and added 12 shots (five on target) and three key passes in the last five appearances.

OCTOBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Mattia Viti - Suffers thigh lesion Viti sustained an adductor strain in the Inter game, Sassuolo announced.

Impact Viti returned to the XI after a while midweek but subbed off at half-time. He'll miss the next two games and will exploit the break to rehab. Ruan Tressoldi will likely be back in the XI, while Gian Marco Ferrari will be the top defensive deputy.

Andrea Consigli - Starting against Inter Consigli (finger) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Inter Milan.

Impact Consigli is back in the starting XI after dealing with a finger issue. The Italian had missed the last two games due to the injury but seems to be fully fit, with him starting in net on Wednesday. He should be a mainstay in goal for the rest of the season as long as he avoids another knock like this one.
