Lazio - Sassuolo predictions

It’s quite easy to predict that Lazio will take the 3 points here. Though a different result is not entirely impossible, it would still be quite a notable upset.

From the present standpoint, the situation is clear as day. Considering the strength of Lazio and the 7.90 odds given to Sassuolo to win, it is easy to conclude that a victory for the visiting team would be a surprising upset.

The 1:1 result at the end of Lazio’s previous match against Inter was quite surprising. They were considered far weaker than their opponents going in, yet managed to pull ahead in the first half.

Sassuolo fans are displeased after their previous performance against Cagliari. The match could have gone either way according to experts and pundits – and it went nowhere in the first half. Cagliari came back in a big way, though, and ran over Sassuolo with a 0:2 away win.

Whenever met on their home pitch, the hosts tend to perform at a high level. They scored more than 5 times in their latest 3 home games alone, marking this match as interesting for BTTS and Over 5 Goals markets.

The away team’s previous three away games left a lot to be desired when it comes to how they perform defensively. Over 5 conceded goals in just 3 matches is never a good look, even if you’re playing as visitors.

Looking at the previous time these squads clashed in this season, it’s no surprise that Lazio are the favourites. They managed to grab a narrow win playing as visitors, and it’s quite reasonable to expect them to do the same as the hosts.

Sassuolo will have an even more difficult time of this match than what was expected. They will be missing at least a few players due to injury - Domenico Berardi, Martin Erlić, Samu Castillejo will all be unable to perform.

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Sunday.
