Preview: Roma vs Sassuolo

After sealing qualification to the round of 32 as group winners in their Europa League quartet, Roma will now seek to get back to winning ways as they host Sassuolo in Serie A. The Giallorossi come into this match having suffered a shocking 4-0 humiliation at the hands of Napoli, who were fired up following the sudden passing of club icon Diego Maradona. Prior to that, Paulo Fonesca's men had recorded five wins and a draw in Serie A, and their only loss this season was a default 3-0 result handed to Hellas Verona due to an administrative error on Roma's part in registering a player.

They have a great chance to get back on track here as the Lupi have a fantastic home record. Roma are unbeaten in their last eight at the Stadio Olimpico, but they've had their problems defensively due to injuries, with Chris Smalling, Gianluca Mancini and Davide Santon all still on the treatment table. Meanwhile, visitors Sassuolo come into this game having finally lost their first game of the season after having a surprisingly good campaign to date, with Inter thrashing them 3-0 last round, and the Neroverdi will be determined to try to again cause Roma trouble once again after beating them 4-2 last February.

Sassuolo have been keen on trying to hang on for at top four berth as long as possible, and up until their recent defeat they were stubbornly remaining in second spot. That being said, they have yet to face league leaders AC Milan and having already lost to Inter, the Nervoverdi could be in for another tough test just before the Christmas hiatus. They were also recently held to a scoreless stalemate to Udinese and failed to pick up all three points against a Torino side who have been battling relegation all season, so it will be very interesting to see what kind of opponent Roma will be facing at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday afternoon.
