Sassuolo are looking to make it back-to-back wins in Serie A when they host the managerless Genoa at the Mapei Stadium on Monday evening.
Genoa parted company with head coach Patrick Vieira following the 2-0 defeat by Cremonese last Wednesday. The Grifone are at the bottom of the standings on three points from nine matches, and are yet to taste victory in the league this season.
Roberto Murgita and Domenico Criscito will lead the team into their match away against Sassuolo this evening.
Sassuolo have made three changes after their 2-1 win over Cagliari in the last round of fixtures, bringing in Tarik Muharemovic, Josh Doig and Domenico Berardi for Woyo Coulibaly, Fali Cande and Cristian Volpato.
There are plenty of changes to the Genoa team, including a change in shape to a 3-5-2, which will be led by Vitinha and Lorenzo Colombo in attack.
Kick-off is due at 17.30 GMT.
Sassuolo (4-3-3): Muric; Walukiewicz, Idzes, Muharemovic, Doig; Thorstvedt, Matic, Kone; Berardi, Pinamonti, Lauriente.
Genoa (3-5-2): Leali; Marcandalli, Ostigard, Vasquez; Norton-Cuffy, Malinkovskyi, Frendrup, Thorsby, Martin; Vitinha, Colombo.
