Early high-flyers Hellas Verona travel to Reggio Emilia to face Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium in Serie A on Friday.
The start made by Verona is in stark contrast to last season, after they needed a playout to avoid relegation.
We say: Sassuolo 0-0 Hellas Verona
Despite their fine start, Verona may still find it tough to make it three from three against a Sassuolo side who have more quality than their disappointing start shows.
If Dionisi can welcome Berardi back into the side, then that should give the side a huge boost, and it should be a closer encounter despite their differing form.

Jose Mourinho will return to the sidelines for Roma's home clash with AC Milan on Friday night in Serie A.
In one of the standout fixtures in a stacked looking weekend of Serie A action, Milan's faultless start has them as slight favourites on their trip to the Italian capital.
We say: Roma 1-2 AC Milan
Roma have found the net in 20 of their previous 21 home matches, while there have been three or more goals in nine of their last 10, and if they can get Lukaku on the pitch at any point, that will also heighten their goal threat.
However, despite winning only three of their final 14 away games last season, Milan have started brilliantly and have not lost to Roma since October 2019, winning four and drawing three in the seven meetings since.
