Sassuolo host Lazio in Serie A, with the home side sitting 14th on 8 points from 8 matches, while the visitors are 2nd with 22 points from the same number of games. The two teams want different things from this game: Sassuolo want to halt their poor run of results, while Lazio want to maintain their momentum. Sassuolo have lost their last two and have won just one of their last five. Their defence is a clear problem, as they have conceded in every one of those matches. Lazio, meanwhile, are on a three-match winning run in the league, scoring consistently and conceding few. Overall, the visitors clearly arrive in the more stable condition. This game is likely to see Lazio as the side pushing forward, as they are superior in both style and form. Sassuolo are expected to sit deep and wait for counter-attacking opportunities or set pieces. If the home side can hold out for a long time, the game could become tense, but if Lazio score first, it will open up and is likely to end with a clear margin.
