Lazio take on the visitors Sassuolo in the round 33 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Wednesday, April 3rd at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Yes, the Romans lost their last two matches in Serie A: to Inter (1-3) and Torino (0-1). But before that, Sarri's team had won four games in a row: against Spezia (3-0), Juventus (2-1), Monza (2-0), and Roma (1-0). Currently, the capital team is in second place in the standings, making them the main contender for the silver medals of the championship. I think that in the home match against Sassuolo, Lazio will win based on their class, end their unsuccessful streak, and start a successful one. After all, the hosts cannot relax, as the teams at the top of the table are closely grouped, and the battle for the Champions League zone is still ahead.

Sassuolo has noticeably improved recently, that's a fact. They often play quality matches, which has led them to the 11th place in the standings, and they feel comfortable since they are far from the relegation zone. In this regard, the guests are less motivated for the rest of the season than the hosts. Essentially, they are just playing out the championship. And if the "black and green" team has started to please their fans with victories at home lately, then in away games, Alessio Dionisi's team seems to lack motivation. Their last two away games in Serie A ended in defeats to not very strong opponents: Verona (1-2) and Salernitana (0-3).
If Sassuolo's footballers lost to modest Verona and Salernitana away, then why should they suddenly take points in Rome from the motivated "eagles" who need a victory like air in their fight for high places? "Black and green" look pale in away matches in the championship lately. On the other hand, Lazio is good at home - in their last four matches on their own field, Sarri's team has won three times: against Juventus (2-1), Roma (1-0), and Sassuolo (1-0). The last personal meeting of the opponents in the capital of Italy ended in a victory for the hosts (2-1). And in the first round of this season, Lazio even beat Sassuolo away (2-0). So, I would bet on a home win. The favorite should take three very important points based on their class!
Prediction for the match: Lazio to win.
