Frosinone welcome Sassuolo to Stadio Benito Stirpe on Friday, 16 October, with kick-off at 18:45 UTC in the seventh round of the Serie A regular season. Both clubs sit in the mid-table cluster, with just two points separating them ahead of the match.

Frosinone come into this fixture ninth in the table, having collected ten points from six matches — three wins, one draw and two defeats. Their goals record stands at nine scored and seven conceded. The hosts have taken ten points from their last five matches, a run that includes victories over Como, Venezia and Fiorentina, a draw at Genoa and a defeat to Napoli.

Sassuolo arrive in eleventh place with eight points from six outings — two wins, two draws and two losses — and a goal difference that reads ten scored against ten conceded. Their last five matches have yielded eight points, with notable results including a victory over Juventus and a draw against AC Milan, offset by a defeat at Monza.

With Frosinone on ten points and Sassuolo on eight, the hosts hold the superior position in the table ahead of kick-off. A 20-team Serie A table means both sides remain well within the mid-table picture after six rounds of matches.

Friday evening's match represents an opportunity for either club to put distance between themselves and the other in the standings at this early stage of the season.
