Sassuolo will host Lazio in Round 9 of Serie A on 27 October 2026 at the Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore in Reggio Emilia.
Lazio are priced at 1.80 to win away from home. The visitors have shown strong form in recent matches, winning four of their last five fixtures and drawing the other. Sassuolo, by contrast, have struggled for consistency, recording just one victory in their last five games. Lazio will look to take advantage of their opponents' defensive weaknesses and extend their positive run in the league.
Sassuolo have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five matches. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-4 away defeat to Frosinone on 16 October, highlighting their defensive problems. Before that, Sassuolo drew 1-1 at home against AC Milan and lost 1-2 away to Monza. Their only victory during this period came against Juventus, whom they defeated 3-2 at home on 13 September. They also drew 2-2 away to Bologna. Sassuolo have shown that they can score against strong opposition, but their inability to maintain defensive stability has cost them valuable points.
Lazio have won four and drawn one of their last five matches. Their most recent result was an impressive 3-0 away victory over Juventus on 18 October. Before that, they defeated Monza 3-1 at home and drew 3-3 against Juve Stabia in the Coppa Italia. Lazio also beat Arezzo 2-0 in the cup and secured a 2-0 away win over Venezia in Serie A. They have scored 11 goals across these five fixtures while conceding just four, demonstrating their attacking quality and defensive reliability. Their recent performances suggest they are well equipped to challenge for another away victory.
The main challenge for Sassuolo will be to contain Lazio's attack while avoiding the defensive mistakes that have affected their recent results. Lazio have demonstrated their ability to control matches and produce convincing performances against strong opponents, as shown by their victory over Juventus. Sassuolo's home advantage could help them create scoring opportunities, but their inconsistent form remains a concern.
Lazio's superior recent results, defensive stability and impressive away victory over Juventus make them the preferred selection. Sassuolo may pose a threat at home, but the visitors have shown greater consistency and appear better positioned to secure all three points.
