AC Milan will be looking to keep up their solid start to their Serie A title defence as they take on Sassuolo at the Stadio Citta del Tricolore, on Tuesday.
Sassuolo have had a mixed start to the season, losing 3-0 to Juventus before narrowly beating Lecce and being held to a 2-2 draw by ten-man Spezia.
Meanwhile, the Rossoneri have amassed seven points from their three games, with a 1-1 draw away to Atalanta sandwiched between a 4-2 win over Udinese and a 2-0 victory against Bologna to ensure they sit second in the standings - just behind Napoli on goal difference.
Stefano Pioli's men will also be protecting an unbeaten run of 19 games when they take on Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium.
