He posted a new season high in clearances, but won't be available against Atalanta next Sunday due to yellow-card accumulation. Muharemovic will return from disqualification in the next round. Coulibaly is the only other right-back in the squad.

Ulisses Garcia - Provides first assist in Serie A Garcia assisted once to go with two crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 win versus Udinese.

Impact Garcia checked in at halftime and instantly gave Sassuolo a different look down the left flank. He played a key role in the sequence that sparked the equalizer, linking up sharply with Arnaud Lauriente before whipping in a pinpoint cross for Andrea Pinamonti in the 58th minute, setting up the match-winning header. It marked his first Serie A assist since arriving from Marseille and an immediate statement performance in his new colors.

Armand Lauriente - Scores goal in victory Lauriente scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 2-1 win versus Udinese.

Impact Lauriente pulled Sassuolo level in the 56th minute with a calm right-footed strike from the heart of the box after a slick setup from Andrea Pinamonti. He was the Neroverdi's most reliable attacking outlet all afternoon, constantly taking on his full-back and forcing Udinese to backpedal instead of pushing their line higher. His equalizer flipped the momentum on the spot and paved the way for the go-ahead goal just two minutes later. Lauriente also delivered his usual impact on set pieces, whipping in five crosses, taking three corners, and creating one key chance in a sharp all-around performance against Udinese.

Andrea Pinamonti - Two goal contributions in win Pinamonti scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Udinese.

Impact Pinamonti sparked the comeback just before the hour mark, sliding a perfectly weighted ball into Armand Lauriente's stride for the equalizer. Two minutes later, he buried the winner with a clinical close-range header off Ulisses Garcia's cross to seal the 2-1 result. His link-up play drove Sassuolo's most dangerous sequences, connecting with wide runners and attacking the box with sharp timing, as he snapped an eight-game drought without a goal contribution by delivering twice when it mattered most.

Arijanet Muric - Two saves in win Muric recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Udinese.

Impact Muric was beaten early when Oumar Solet jumped a high turnover and buried the opener past him. From there, he settled in and stayed sharp as Sassuolo tightened up, cutting off Udinese's clear-cut chances while the visitors stormed back after the break to flip the script. He navigated a tense finish that even featured a disallowed Udinese equalizer for handball, closed with two saves on the afternoon, and is still chasing his first clean sheet in the last three matches heading into Friday's showdown with Verona.

Stefano Turati - Unused sub in Udinese match Turati (illness) didn't play in Sunday's 2-1 win over Udinese.

Filippo Romagna or Woyo Coulibaly will enter the XI in relief, with Sebastian Walukiewicz moving to the middle of the defense in the second case.

Impact Turati should be back available after skipping one contest because of the flu, but the gaffer renewed his trust in Arijanet despite a couple of gaffes in recent weeks, so he'll continue to serve as the deputy.
