Sassuolo vs Lazio: Match Insights

Recent Head-to-Head: Sassuolo has struggled for points in their recent encounters with Lazio, earning just a single point from their last five league matches against the Biancocelesti. This point came from a 1-1 draw in May 2024, a result which ended a run of five consecutive defeats against Lazio.
Home Struggles Against Lazio: The Neroverdi have lost their last two home matches against Lazio by a 0-2 scoreline on both occasions. Historically, they have found more success at home, scoring 11 goals in the nine home matches prior to this recent low-scoring trend. Sassuolo has never suffered three consecutive home defeats against Lazio.
A Familiar Start to the Season: Sassuolo’s current record of two losses in their first two Serie A games mirrors their start to the 2013/14 season, when they were also a newly promoted side. That year, they had to wait until the fifth matchday to earn their first point.
Sarri’s Scoring Records: Since 2014/15, Maurizio Sarri’s teams have managed to score four or more goals in 33 Serie A matches. Only Gian Piero Gasperini (59) and Simone Inzaghi (51) have achieved this feat more times. A strong performance in this match would see Lazio score at least four goals in consecutive league games for the first time since a three-match run in September and October 2022, a run that also occurred under Sarri.

Expected Starting Lineups

Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Marusic, Gila, Romagnoli, Nuno Tavares; Guendouzi, Cataldi, Dele-Bashiru; Cancellieri, Castellanos, Zaccagni.

Sassuolo (4-3-3): Muric; Walukiewicz, Idzes, Muharemovic, Doig; Vrancx, Matic, Boloca; Berardi, Pinamonti, Lauriente

Final Score Prediction: Sassuolo 1-2 Lazio

Given Sassuolo’s poor start and Lazio’s recent convincing victory, the Biancocelesti are the favorites to win this match. However, Sassuolo’s need for points and their ability to score at home could make this a closer contest than expected. Look for Lazio to pick up all three points with both teams scoring in this contest.
