Sassuolo haven’t kept a clean sheet in Serie A and Lazio are flying high at the top of the table. I am backing Gennaro Gattuso’s side to maintain their form and pick up all three points.

Key Stats


  • Sassuolo have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
  • Lazio have won 5 of their last 7 matches against Sassuolo.
  • Lazio have won 8 of their last 9 matches. (Serie A).

HTH


These clubs met for the first time in 2013, Lazio holding a 14-6 advantage alongside four draws.

Sassuolo Struggling on the Road


Sassuolo had a positive start to the season, unbeaten in five of their opening six matches which included a 3-2 victory against Juventus.

The wheels fell off after that with only one point earned in their previous four matches. All three road games have ended in defeat, the latest a 2-0 defeat at Como.

Alberto Aquilani’s side drew 1-1 against AC Milan in their previous home game. They are yet to taste defeat in five matches in front of their own fans.

Lazio Top of the Table


Gennaro Gattuso couldn’t have asked for a better start after taking over at Lazio. The capital club have seven wins and one draw in Serie A, level with Inter at the top of the table. 

Gattuso’s side blew a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 against AC Milan but have won all four matches since. They won 3-0 at Juventus to enhance their title credentials.

Lazio are coming off a 2-1 win against Parma. They conceded in added time but largely had the game under control, ending with 69% possession and 1.74-0.81 xG.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Sassuolo (4-3-3) Stefano Turati; Ignace van Der Brempt, Duje Caleta-Car, Fali Candé, Rafa Obrador; Vasilije Adzic, Nemanja Matic, Darryl Bakola; Domenico Berardi, Sebastiano Esposito, Benja Domínguez

Centre-backs Fedde Leysen and Jay Idzes are out alongside midfielders Daniel Boloca and Ismaël Koné. Kieron Bowie could make way for Sebastiano Esposito up front.

Lazio (4-3-3) Christos Mandas; Romano Mussolini, Josip Sutalo, Oliver Provstgaard, Nuno Tavares; Davide Frattesi, Reda Belahyane, Kenneth Taylor; Gustav Isaksen, Tijjani Noslin, Mattia Zaccagni

Midfielder Nicolò Rovella is dealing with a calf injury and Andrea Pinamonti has bronchitis. Albert Gudmundsson is out for another month which could see Tijjani Noslin continue up front.

Verdict

Lazio have been the surprise package in Serie A, keeping pace with Inter at the top of the table. Sassuolo deserve respect at home, but the capital club are playing with confidence and make if five straight wins.
