Arijanet Muric - Subs off during Nations League game Muric left Sunday's match versus Austria at the 66th minute after crashing into an opponent, Tuttomercatoweb reported.

Impact Muric got hurt while trying to avoid a goal and was in too much discomfort to continue. He'll soon undergo exams to determine whether he'll report back to Sassuolo early and assess what kind of injury he suffered. Stefano Turati would step in against Milan on October 11 if needed.

Sebastiano Esposito - Held in check by Monza Esposito generated two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 2-1 loss versus Monza.

Impact Esposito drew his second consecutive start at the expense of Kieron Bowie but wasn't as good as in the Juventus clash. The two strikers might alternate based on the match-up going forward, but both will likely get decent minutes. He has scored once and tallied four shots (two on target) and three chances created in his two outings.

Simone Cinquegrano - Active on both ends in Monza bout Cinquegrano registered two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and five clearances and won two of two tackles in Friday's 2-1 defeat versus Monza.

Impact Cinquegrano put together another energetic two-way display, contributing across the board, despite the losses and his team conceding twice. He has continued to start over the more established Ignace Van der Brempt, while Sebastian Walukiewicz (thigh) is currently hurt. He has notched three more clean sheets in the three straight games, accumulating 12 and adding three shots (one on target), three crosses (zero accurate) and four tackles (all won) over that span, with no clean sheets.

Domenico Berardi - Sends in five crosses in Monza clash Berardi had two shots (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and three corners and created two scoring chances in Friday's 2-1 defeat against Monza.

Impact Berardi had his usual robust volume in the final third, but the whole Sassuolo offense sputtered as a whole in this one and broke through only late in the fixture. He has notched at least one shot, amassing nine (seven on target), one cross, totaling 10 (three accurate), and one corner, piling up six, in four straight contests, scoring once and creating four chances over that span.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Kristian Thorstvedt - Co-leads team in attempts against Monza Thorstvedt had three shots (one on goal), one interception and one chance created and drew three fouls in Friday's 2-1 loss to Monza.

Impact Thorstvedt paced his outfit in shots alongside Armand Lauriente, but his efforts weren't too menacing overall. He set a new season high in such a stat, as he's been handled carefully after the World Cup. He has started in back-to-back games, but Darryl Bakola and Vasilije Adzic have been more effective. He has recorded seven attempts (three on target), two chances created and two tackles (one won) so far.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Armand Lauriente - Passable outing against Monza Lauriente had three shots (one on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and two corners and created two scoring chances in Friday's 2-1 defeat against Monza.

Impact Lauriente was one of the liveliest attackers for his side, co-pacing it in deliveries and attempts, but he was never super dangerous in the final third. He has uncorked multiple crosses and corners in every display so far, piling up 19 (four accurate) and 11, respectively, assisting also and logging 19 shots (five on target) and seven chances created in that stretch.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Vasilije Adzic - Hits the net again versus Monza Adzic scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created in 18 minutes in Friday's 2-1 defeat against Monza.

Impact Adzic was brought off the bench for the second game in a row but found the net again, giving his team some hope late thanks to a gorgeous free kick. He has made the stat sheet in three consecutive tilts. He has to split time with Kristian Thorstvedt and Darryl Bakola in the midfield. He has logged at least one shot, totaling 11 (five on target), and one cross, racking up seven (three accurate), in every outing, adding 12 key passes and six tackles (five won).

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Arijanet Muric - Beaten twice in Monza match Muric had four saves and one clearance and allowed two goals in Friday's 2-1 defeat versus Monza.

Impact Muric had a blunder on Monza's first goal, as he failed to properly corral a routine header, and it went in after bouncing off the post. He then conceded on a PK. He had been fine but not spectacular until this match. He relinquished the starting job to Stefano Turati a couple of times last season, so he'll have to avoid further gaffes. He has given up nine goals and made 21 saves in the first five rounds. Up next, Sassuolo will host Milan on October 10.

Darryl Bakola - Assists after injury return Bakola assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 win versus Juventus.

Impact Bakola returned from injury in a substitute role and immediately made his presence felt, providing his first assist of the season during Sassuolo's three-goal second half. The midfielder had started each of the opening two Serie A matches before the injury interrupted his campaign, so Sunday's 35-minute appearance represented an encouraging return to action. He should have an opportunity to work his way back toward the starting XI as his fitness improves.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Nemanja Matic - Sets up opening goal Matic assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 win versus Juventus.

Impact Matic unlocked the Juventus defense with the pass that sent Sebastiano Esposito through for Sassuolo's opening goal, giving the midfielder an attacking contribution in a dramatic victory. He completed another full match in central midfield and has now started all four of Sassuolo's Serie A fixtures this season, recording one assist over that span.

Kieron Bowie - Scores off bench Bowie scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 3-2 victory versus Juventus.

Impact Bowie came off the bench for the first time this season and needed only one attempt to score, briefly restoring Sassuolo's lead during a frantic closing stretch. Juventus responded almost immediately through Edon Zhegrova before Vasilije Adzic eventually secured the victory for the hosts. Sunday's goal was Bowie's first of the Serie A season and showed he can still provide attacking production after being moved to a substitute role.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Vasilije Adzic - Scores dramatic winner Adzic scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 3-2 win versus Juventus.

Impact Adzic made his limited minutes count by scoring the winning goal with the final kick of the match, giving Sassuolo all three points after Juventus had twice fought back to equalize. The midfielder has now recorded a goal contribution in three consecutive Serie A appearances, making an increasingly strong case for a larger role despite coming off the bench Sunday. Adzic has two goals and one assist through four league appearances this season.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Sebastiano Esposito - Scores on season debut Esposito scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and three chances created in Sunday's 3-2 win over Juventus.

Impact Esposito made an immediate impact in his first appearance of the season, finishing Nemanja Matic's through ball to break the deadlock during the second half. The forward also created three chances before being withdrawn after 70 minutes, adding creativity to his goalscoring contribution. It was an encouraging Sassuolo debut for Esposito following his summer arrival from Cagliari and should put him in contention for further starts.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Arijanet Muric - Makes six saves Muric recorded six saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 3-2 win over Juventus.

Impact Muric was kept busy throughout the contest and made six saves as Sassuolo secured a dramatic victory, denying Juventus several times before Edon Zhegrova beat him twice during the closing stages. His work earlier in the match helped keep Sassuolo in position to claim all three points when Vasilije Adzic struck the late winner. Muric has made 17 saves while conceding seven goals without a clean sheet through four Serie A appearances this season. He'll next face Monza in league play.

Impact Idzes didn't pick up many stats but held things together in the back, as his side allowed two goals after he bowed out holding his thigh. He faces a short turnaround to recover for Friday's away game versus Monza. Duje Caleta-Car and Cas Odenthal are the alternative options at the position.

Cristian Volpato - Diagnosed with thigh injury Volpato is nursing a moderate-grade flexor strain in his right leg, Sassuolo announced.

Impact Volpato will miss the next two matches and will try to return after the first international break, but he might need more time to recover, given the severity of the issue. He's been playing over Domenico Berardi, who had a slow start because of a pre-season injury. Benjamin Dominguez should also get some minutes in the role.
