Sassuolo vs AC Milan LIVE - Confirmed starting lineups & pre-match updates for Serie A 2026-27 clash

Sassuolo will host AC Milan at the MAPEI Stadium Città del Tricolore on Sunday, October 11, 2026, in a Serie A Round 6 fixture. The match presents an important test for both sides as they look to build momentum early in the league campaign.

The meeting brings together Sassuolo’s attacking approach and an AC Milan side seeking to maintain its strong start under manager Ruben Amorim. With technical quality and attacking options on both sides, the contest could be decided by how effectively each team handles transitions and converts their chances.

Milan now hopes to go undefeated in their opening six Serie A games for the first time since 2022, although this week’s hosts have been difficult opponents in the past.

Both teams will have selection decisions to make ahead of kick-off, particularly Sassuolo. They have several players listed as unavailable or doubtful. Milan also have concerns to assess before finalising their starting XI.

Players to watch out for

Domenico Berardi (Sassuolo)

Berardi’s ability to create chances from the right and cut inside makes him an important attacking outlet for the hosts. His availability should be confirmed closer to kick-off.

Christian Pulisic (AC Milan)

Pulisic can influence the game between the lines, linking midfield with the forward line and creating opportunities in the final third.
