Lazio will look to continue their strong run when they face Sassuolo in the Italian championship on 27 October 2026, with the visitors rated favourites to claim all three points.
Sassuolo go into the match 14th in the table with eight points. They are four points clear of the relegation zone, but their recent form has increased the pressure on the Neroverdi.
The Black-and-Greens have lost their past two matches. They were beaten 4-2 by Frosinone before suffering a 2-0 defeat against Como in their most recent meeting.
Lazio, by contrast, are second in the standings on 22 points. They trail leaders Inter only on additional criteria, leaving them firmly in contention near the top of the table.
The Eagles have won their past three matches. After a 3-0 victory over Juventus, they followed it with a narrow 2-1 success against Parma. That result maintained Lazio’s momentum and strengthened their position ahead of the trip to face Sassuolo.
Head-to-head record and form
Lazio won the most recent meeting between the sides 2-1. They have also recorded three victories in their past five matches.
The visitors’ three-match winning streak is a key reason why Lazio are considered the stronger side before this fixture. Sassuolo will need to improve after consecutive defeats if they are to prevent Lazio from extending that run.
Prediction
Lazio are expected to overcome Sassuolo and take another victory in the Italian championship. The prediction is for a Lazio win.
