Odds correct at time of publishing
As Sassuolo welcomes Lazio, the expectation for goals might not be as high as some may think. Despite Sassuolo's home scoring average sitting at 2, they've struggled defensively recently, conceding an average of 2.2 goals in their last five outings. Lazio, on the other hand, has been formidable on the road, winning four of their last five matches while allowing just 0.6 goals per game. Considering the xG stats, both teams' recent performances suggest a cautious affair. Sassuolo's offensive output has diminished, with a meager xG average, while Lazio’s solid defense might just stifle their scoring chances. With Sassuolo's last five head-to-head encounters against Lazio showing a trend of low-scoring games, placing a bet on 'No' for both teams to score could be a savvy move. The narrative leans towards a tightly contested game, where the defenses hold firm.
