Sassuolo vs. Lazio – In the opening Serie A match of the day on Sunday at MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore, Sassuolo and Lazio will square off.
Last weekend, both teams suffered point losses after allowing goals in stoppage time. Nico Gonzalez’s successful penalty kick in the 91st minute caused Sassuolo to lose to Fiorentina 2-1.
As Domenico Berardi made no errors late in the second half at Stadio Artemio Franchi, we must acknowledge that I Neroverdi also scored from the penalty spot on this particular occasion.
The team of Alessio Dionisi generally played well. For their supporters, the fact that they made 17 efforts on the road at Fiorentina augurs well for the match against Lazio at home.
In addition, if we include Sassuolo’s midseason friendlies against Empoli and Inter Milan, they did lose four straight games. They are 16th in the league standings, but they are still seven points away from the goal.
Additionally, we must mention that I Neroverdi only dropped three of their eight league games played at home this season, scoring just nine goals in the process (12-9 goal difference).
Given that Lazio only earned one point from their games against Lecce (a 2-1 loss on the road) and Empoli (a 2-2 draw at home) during the World Cup break, we think Sassuolo has a good chance of winning here in front of the home crowd.
What venue will host the game between Sassuolo vs Lazio?
Sassuolo is going head-to-head with Lazio starting on 15 Jan 2023 at 11:30 UTC at Mapei Stadium stadium, Reggio Emilia city, Italy.
