Meeting Highlights…PREPARATION
We had a few more days but we were coming off 3 games played in a few days and for us these days were important because we got to know the players, the people and their qualities better and better.
…ABOUT TEAM
The team is doing well. Things weigh a little more now, you're not relaxed because you have difficulties to overcome, but it's nice for a boy, you do this profession, you play football, it's nice to have so many difficulties and being able to overcome them, it is very stimulating and we have this before us but we also know that we have individual qualities as a team, an important club, and all this leads us to say that we are here, the difficulties are there but we also know the way to overcome them because in life not everything is always easy, real people come out for the people they are and for the qualities they have especially in delicate moments and this is a delicate moment.
…INJURY REPORT
Toljan isn't here, Viti you know he's absence, Pedersen has a fever and stayed in the hotel, Berardi you know, Kumbulla trained today and let's see how he is. These are the injured and the doubts.

Eusebio Di Francesco
Manager on Frosinone…ABOUT MATCH
If we were to look at how the teams were built and their ambitions, Sassuolo should have greater strength. We have the points advantage but it will be decided in those 100 minutes and for now it's 50/50. We will definitely go and play for it.
…OPPONENT
Sassuolo, logically, will be a different team also on a psychological level from the one we faced in the first match. We are both fighting for salvation, they are slightly below us but we have the desire, after having put in some excellent performances, to come away with an important race but also with an equally important result. It's the common objective of the two teams, it will be a delicate match like there will be many to follow.
…INJURY REPORT
Approximately all the boys have returned to their places. The somewhat precarious solutions were linked to the period in which we didn't have full-backs. My choice to sometimes put a more offensive or more tactical midfielder in the left area of the pitch is linked to the characteristics of the players. Left-handed players like Ghedjemis, Seck, Soulé express themselves better when they play on the right. But I tried both Seck and Ghedjems on the left where they manage to adapt better than Soulé who for example is more comfortable on the right. There will be some different solutions but now everyone has returned to their place. I also see it in the quality we express during training. The only thing we're missing now is the important result, the desire to bring home something important.
