Lazio To Win To Nil

Reason for tip

Lazio, who need a win or draw to qualify for the Europa League, have won their last five home games with clean sheets in three of them. They should easily beat already-relegated Sassuolo, who have lost 10 of their last 11 away Serie A matches.

Lazio 2-0

Reason for tip

Lazio’s last two home wins have been achieved with clean sheets and there is every chance they will roll on with another against a Sassuolo side that has formed blanks in six of their last 11 away games, falling to defeat in 10 of them. Lazio have not scored more than two goals in any of their last six games, so a 2-0 scoreline looks to be the limit of their capability right now.

Lazio can confirm Europa League berth

Lazio can confirm their spot in the Europa League with a win or draw over Sassuolo in their final game of the season, but the likelihood is that Igor Tudor’s side will get three points and a clean sheet.

I Biancocleste are under no real pressure as even if they lose, they can still qualify for the tournament if Fiorentina fail to beat both Cagliari and Atalanta in their final two Serie A games.

But should Lazio slip up to Sassuolo and the Viola win their remaining two matches, then Tudor’s team will finish eighth in the table with the consolation prize of Conference League football to come next term.

Tudor’s thrillers yet to be staged

The former Hellas Verona coach has helped turn around Lazio’s ailing fortunes since he replaced Maurizio Sarri, although the expected high goals return has not quite emerged.

The ex-Juventus defender established a reputation for attacking football in the past, but he perhaps lacks the kind of finishers that are needed to produce the sort of thrilling games for which his sides used to be known.

Still, back-to-back home clean sheets against his former club and Empoli have been steps in the right direction and they can get a third in a row against an already-relegated Sassuolo side that have been such a disappointment this season. Ten away defeats in their last 11 road trips tells it’s own story and there is every likelihood they succumb to Lazio at the Olimpico here.
