Recent Form

Sassuolo's last five matches read loss, draw, loss, win and draw. That adds up to 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats, so the hosts have lost two of their last five and won only one. It is an inconsistent form line. The weight of draws suggests the team is not struggling to pick up points, but it has been unable to turn them into wins.

Lazio present the opposite picture. The visitors have recorded three wins and two draws in their last five matches without a single defeat. Winning three and sharing the points twice is a sign of consistent performance. Put side by side, Lazio's form suggests they will arrive in better spirits.

League Standings

In the 20-team league, Sassuolo sit 13th with 8 points from 7 matches, with a goal difference of -2. Lazio are 2nd with 19 points from the same number of matches and a goal difference of +10. These numbers reveal a clear gap in points per game: Lazio average roughly 2.71, while Sassuolo average roughly 1.14.

The goal difference completes the story. Lazio's +10 shows a balanced start to the season both in scoring and in conceding. Sassuolo's negative goal difference suggests that defensive problems are showing up in the table. You can check the current table on the standings page.

Goal Expectation and Key Stats

The most striking part of this match is the goal statistics. Sassuolo score 1.8 goals per match while conceding 2.2, and the total goals average in their matches reaches 4.0. Their both-teams-to-score rate is 100 percent, meaning both sides have found the net in every game they have played. 80 percent of their matches have finished Over, and even at a higher goal line that rate stays at 60 percent.

Lazio's profile is slightly different. The visitors score 2.6 goals per match and concede 1.2, with a total goals average of 3.8. Their both-teams-to-score rate is 60 percent, lower than Sassuolo's. However, Lazio's Over rate is also 80 percent, and 60 percent at the higher goal line. In other words, the Over tendencies of the two teams are almost identical.

Crossing the two profiles produces an interesting picture. Lazio's attacking output of 2.6 meets a Sassuolo defence that concedes 2.2 per match, a matchup that raises the visitors' chances of scoring. Sassuolo's 1.8 scoring average is above the 1.2 that Lazio concede, which suggests the hosts can also find the net. Both teams also have a 100 percent rate at the lower goal line, which supports the expectation of goals.

Based on these numbers, the Over potential is rated strong and playable, with low risk. The basis for this assessment is the per-match goal averages and the high Over rate.

iTahmin Verdict

Looking at the data, Lazio appear a step ahead in both ranking and form. Their 2nd place, unbeaten last five matches and +10 goal difference are the main indicators in the visitors' favour. On the other hand, Sassuolo conceding 2.2 goals per match is a risk for the hosts against Lazio's attacking strength. At the same time, Sassuolo's 100 percent both-teams-to-score rate shows the hosts have the capacity to produce goals as well.

In terms of goal expectation, the picture points to a high-tempo game. The two teams' average total goals stand at 4.0 and 3.8, so the numbers are in place for a match with goals. Of course, a single football match can develop differently from these statistics, so our assessment reflects tendencies only.
