[Serie A] Sassuolo Vs Lazio Preview

The Sassuolo vs Lazio match in Week 18 of the Italian Serie A League is scheduled to take place at the Mapei Stadium, Sunday (15/1/2023).

Acting as the host, Sassuolo will want a better result here after losing 1-2 last week in their Serie A match against Fiorentina.

And for Lazio, after a second blackout last weekend resulted in Lazio losing two more points in the competition for a top-four position, they now seek to regain their winning form at Sassuolo on Sunday.

The Biancoceleste will arrive at the Mapei Stadium having not won since the World Cup break.

After a successful run in mid-autumn, Lazio's season now appears to be in jeopardy due to an unstable defense, which previously demonstrated itself to be among the best in Serie A this season.

Seven of the 15 goals Lazio has conceded in Serie A this season have come in their last three matches, following losses in their two most recent away matches against Juventus and Lecce.

Their recent results show that Lazio has not beaten Sassuolo when playing away during their previous 2 matches in the Italian League. And if they lose again next away match, then that will be the first time since mid-2021 that Lazio is losing three consecutive away matches.

Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Hysaj, Casale, Romagnoli, Marusic; Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Immobile, Zaccagni

Prediction: Sassuolo - Lazio = 1 - 2
