Juventus kick off their 2022-23 Serie A season against Sassuolo on August 15 at home.
Massimiliano Allegri's side finished fourth in Italy's top-flight last season and a disappointing 16 points shy of champions AC Milan. It was barely enough to qualify for the Champions League, where they will feature in the group stage.
After years of Serie A dominance, Juventus have now failed to win consecutive league titles and will be desperate to challenge again in 2022/23.
Sassuolo, meanwhile, finished 11th last season and did claim a memorable 2-1 win over Juve in October 2021 on a Maxime Lopez stoppage time winner. Juventus would respond with a late Moise Kean goal for a 2-1 road win of their own in April 2022.
What time is Juventus vs. Sassuolo?
Juventus will play Sassuolo on August 15 with the game kicking off at 20:45 (local time).
The match is taking place at Juventus Stadium, otherwise known as Allianz Stadium.
