Sassuolo vs Lazio – Prediction (Serie A – 24.11.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

More than half of Sassuolo’s Serie A (SA) points have come in their last four matches (W2, D1, L1) with three of those four producing over 2.5 total goals, which has been the case in nine of their 11 SA games this season. Indeed, only Atalanta’s fixtures have averaged more total SA goals per game than Sassuolo’s 3.82 this season, an average that increases to 4.50 at home.

A half-time lead usually indicates the final result in Sassuolo’s matches, with seven of the ten winners (either way) in their fixtures so far leading at half-time. Slow starts have also been a regular feature, with Sassuolo conceding two-thirds of their SA goals during the first half. Sassuolo’s Domenico Berardi has scored three of his last four SA goals during the second half.

Sassuolo have lost five of the seven SA games that they started as an outsider this season. Nine of Lazio’s 12 SA matches have produced over 2.5 total goals. Ten of the 13 league goals Lazio have conceded came before half-time.

Unbeaten in seven SA games, including four straight wins, Lazio are on an upward trajectory. The visitors have enjoyed high-scoring second halves in this fixture, with 14 of their last 23 SA H2H goals coming after the break. This season more specifically, nearly half of their SA goals (13 of 28) have come after the hour mark.

Furthermore, Lazio travel here after netting the opener in eight of their 12 SA games, going on to win on seven of those occasions. On a similar note, Lazio have drawn three of the four SA games in which they conceded first (D3, L1). Lazio’s Ciro Immobile has scored five of his last seven SA goals after the 60th minute.
