Sassuolo vs Frosinone prediction 02.09.2026 | Coppa Italia

After a mid-table finish last season, Sassuolo's hopes for the 2026/27 season don't differ significantly. They were at the start of the campaign, as Alberto Aquilani's team won two of three matches across all competitions. In the previous game, Sassuolo won 2-1 at home against Torino. The hosts had much better goal-scoring opportunities, and although it was far from easy, Sassuolo pulled out a valuable victory. Only a few days later, Aquilani's team will welcome Frosinone in another important tie.

Sassuolo's head coach, Alberto Aquilani, was thrilled after a victory in the last round. He also added, "I found a group of serious, curious, and dedicated players who immediately recognized something I and my staff offer, and when you find players like that, everything is easier. We're growing, and there's still a lot of room for improvement. We're just starting out, and we're struggling a bit, and that's precisely why I'm happy, because it wasn't a given."

Sassuolo have big problems with missing players. Daniel Boloca, Fali Cande, Ismael Kone, Yeferson Paz, Edoardo Pieragnolo, and Sebastian Waluiewicz are injured and are unavailable for Wednesday night.

After two seasons in Serie B, Frosinone returned to the Italian top flight. However, they are clearly one of the weakest teams in the competition, and their primary goal is to avoid relegation. Massimiliano Alvini's team is solid at the start of the season with two wins in three matches. Last weekend, Frosinone were impressive with a 3-0 road victory against Fiorentina. The hosts had 60% ball possession and 13 more shots on goal, but the visitors' outstanding efficiency and superb defense were enough for a convincing win.

Frosinone's head coach, Massimiliano Alvini, was very satisfied with a big victory in the previous Serie A round. He said, "The scoreline was too harsh on Fiorentina because they had several chances and hit the post twice. What needs to be highlighted is that we played the game with a clear idea, with focus, doing what our style and our identity. We took some risks at certain moments, but we had the desire to do well. That is significant for us. It is an important win."

Fares Ghedjemis should be the only one unavailable for Frosinone's trip to Reggio Emilia.
