- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and AS Roma launch into their encounter with US Sassuolo Calcio.
- 5' Samuele Mulattieri has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 10' The 27-year-old Ruan has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Houssem Aouar made 428 appearances and scored 35 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 25' The energy levels are beginning to show. Daniele De Rossi might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 30' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His AS Roma side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 35' AS Roma have won 615 goals from 529 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 37' Fresh legs for AS Roma! Angelino comes on to replace Leonardo Spinazzola.
- 42' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Daniel Boloca suffering a number of foals already.
- 47' Stephan El Shaarawy needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 15 Yellow cards this season.

- 70' The supporters are chanting for Tommaso Baldanzi. He replaces Houssem Aouar on 70 minute.
- 72' Cristian Volpato is ready to make an impact after coming on for Pedro Obiang at the 72 minute mark.
- 77' It is a cagey affair so far. AS Roma in their 4-3-3 trying to find a way past US Sassuolo Calcio's compact 4-3-3.
- 79' Another change for US Sassuolo Calcio made on 79 minute. Uros Racic leaves to be changed by Nedim Bajrami.
- 84' Armand Lauriente has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 86' Dean Huijsen is ready to make an impact after coming on for Stephan El Shaarawy at the 86 minute mark.
- 89' Poor challenge from Sardar Azmoun. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
