What Kind of Sassuolo Will We See in Bergamo?

The regular starters were rested against Genoa, and changes are possible for the match against Atalanta. Berardi, who scored on Monday versus Genoa, could be part of the lineup again.

Rotation Challenges and Player Availability

After three games in a week and considering Muharemovic's return alongside Volpato's absence, coach Fabio Grosso faces decisions about the starting eleven. So far, Grosso has never repeated the same starting lineup, whether by choice or necessity, making the selection process crucial.

Team Strategy: Consistency or Refreshment?

The coach must decide whether to maintain the same team that lost to Genoa, giving them a chance for redemption, or to introduce new players to reinvigorate a squad that showed signs of fatigue on Monday night. Fatigue was notable among the players who have consistently played from the start of matches.

"It's true that there are five substitutions and that the black-and-green coach uses them systematically, but relatively rigid hierarchies have forced overtime from a unit that has been on the pitch, and from the start, practically every time."

This suggests that despite the options to rotate, certain core players have logged extensive minutes, leading to endurance concerns.

Conclusion

Sassuolo's lineup against Atalanta will reflect a balance between continuity and necessary adjustments due to fatigue and available players.
