Juventus faces Sassuolo while managing a significant injury crisis

Juventus travels to Mapei Stadium on Sunday for a Serie A Matchday 4 fixture against Sassuolo. Manager Luciano Spalletti heads into the contest with a depleted roster, as nearly nine senior players are currently sidelined with injuries. This list includes captain Manuel Locatelli, who recently underwent surgery to repair a meniscus issue. Despite the absences, Spalletti has emphasized the need for the remaining squad to increase their collective responsibility and intensity. Juventus enters the match following a period of inconsistent results at this venue over the last five years. The team aims to maintain an unbeaten record for the season while preparing for a dense schedule that includes the start of the Europa League.
