Sassuolo boss Eusebio Di Francesco has said that he believes his side have benefited from the international break.
The Neroverdi have started the season brightly, having won their opening two matches against Napoli and Bologna.
Di Francesco says that he is pleased about having rested some of his players ahead of Sunday's clash with Atalanta BC at the Mapei Stadium.
"We are delighted to be back again after the break," Di Francesco is quoted as saying by Gazzetta World.
"Over the break, we have managed to bring some players back who were not at 100% fitness. Now it is about keeping the same desire for us.
"Atalanta have done very well this season and even when lost at the San Siro, they played well. They are very good on the counter-attack so we must be wary of that."
Sassuolo face Atalanta at 2pm tomorrow.
