Sassuolo vs Lazio: Match Preview
Sassuolo have been very inconsistent throughout this season. Last campaign, they earned promotion to Serie A and finished in the middle of the table. I think they would like to achieve a similar result this time around. In their last eight matches, Sassuolo have won just twice, suffered four defeats and recorded two draws. They have eight points after eight matches and a four-point cushion above the relegation zone.
Lazio have surprised everyone with an unexpectedly strong start to the season. They lost their first official match of the campaign, suffering a shock 2-0 defeat to Mantova in the Coppa Italia. However, the Eagles have been performing very well in Serie A. They have won seven of their eight league matches, with their only draw coming against AC Milan. A few days ago, they also thrashed Juventus 3-0. They currently have 22 points after eight rounds and share top spot with Inter.
Probable lineups
- Sassuolo: Turati; Cinquegrano, Caleta-Car, Odenthal, Doig; Lipani, Matic, Thorstvedt; Berardi, Esposito, Lauriente
- Lazio: Mandas; Floriani Mussolini, Sutalo, Doekhi, Tavares; Frattesi, Belahyane, Taylor; Isaksen, Noslin, Zaccagni
Prediction
Sassuolo are not in the best form, unlike Lazio. I think the visitors have every chance of winning despite playing away from home. My betting tip is a Lazio win.
