The Neroverdi have apparently turned their season around in recent weeks, notching up eight points from a four-round unbeaten streak.

Coach Eusebio Di Francesco has star striker Zaza and centre-back Cannavaro back from injury, though Francesco Acerbi is suspended in defence.

This time out Nicola Sansone completes the trident attack with Zaza and Domenico Berardi.

Atalanta held Napoli to a 1-1 draw and shared the spoils with Torino, but are in dire need of an improved away record.

Veteran German Denis leads the line with Maxi Moralez, while 21-year-old talent Richmond Boakye is on the bench.

Luca Cigarini and Carlos Carmona are both suspended for the visitors, joining Valerio Rosseti and Marcelo Estigarribia back in Bergamo.

Last season Sassuolo beat Atalanta 2-0 both home and away.
