Lazio vs Sassuolo Schedule and Prediction 10 March 2026

Lazio will host Sassuolo at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome in the continuation of the 2025/2026 Serie A campaign (Round 28). This is an interesting fixture because the two sides are close to each other in mid-table, with Sassuolo sitting above Lazio. As a result, this match could help shape the race towards the upper half or simply strengthen each club’s position in a safer part of the table.

Lazio vs Sassuolo Schedule

The official kick-off is listed for Monday, 9 March 2026 at 19:45 UTC. Converted to WIB (GMT+7), the match will be played on Tuesday, 10 March 2026 at 02:45 WIB.

Current Form of Both Teams (as of 7 March 2026)

In the league table, Lazio are in 11th place with 34 points, while Sassuolo sit 9th with 38 points. That means Lazio need a win to close the gap and improve their standing, while Sassuolo will be aiming to maintain their momentum and remain comfortably on a competitive path.

Sassuolo also arrive with plenty of confidence, as their recent performances have drawn positive attention, including an emphatic win that further boosted belief ahead of this trip to the Olimpico.

LAPKV see In terms of key attacking threats, Sassuolo have Domenico Berardi as their top scorer with seven goals, while Lazio’s goals have been shared more evenly, with several players jointly near the top of the club’s scoring chart. That means Lazio may need to rely on collective quality and efficiency rather than depending on one standout name.

Lazio vs Sassuolo Head-to-Head (Last 5 Meetings)

Below are the last five meetings, with the results shown from Lazio’s perspective (Win/Lose/Draw).

Predicted Line-ups

The following predictions are based on the expected outlook before the match and could change once the official team sheets are released closer to kick-off.

Predicted Lazio line-up (4-3-3): Ivan Provedel; Adam Marusic, Alessio Romagnoli, Oliver Provstgaard, Luca Pellegrini; Reda Belahyane, Danilo Cataldi, Kenneth Taylor; Matteo Cancellieri, Petar Ratkov, Mattia Zaccagni.

Lazio are also expected to be without several players through injury, including Samuel Gigot, Nicolò Rovella and Toma Basic, which could affect their rotation options in both midfield and defence.

Predicted Sassuolo line-up (4-3-3): Arijanet Muric; Woyo Coulibaly, Jay Idzes, Tarik Muharemovic, Ulisses Garcia; Ismaël Koné, Nemanja Matic, Kristian Thorstvedt; Domenico Berardi, M’Bala Nzola, Armand Laurienté.

For Sassuolo, one key factor to watch is the possible absence of several injured players, while Andrea Pinamonti was listed as suspended in previews ahead of the match. If Pinamonti is unavailable, Sassuolo’s finishing options may change slightly, although Berardi and Laurienté will still be their main attacking outlets.

Match Prediction

Lazio are likely to try to control the tempo at the Olimpico by making use of the width of the pitch through their two wingers and overlapping full-backs. The key will be the quality of their final ball and their composure in the final third, because Sassuolo tend to be comfortable waiting for moments to break quickly on the counter-attack.

Sassuolo, on the other hand, have a profile well suited to away matches. They can absorb pressure and then punish opponents in transition, particularly through the Berardi–Laurienté combination, which is capable of both creating chances and supplying assists. If Lazio commit too many men forward without proper protection in midfield, Sassuolo could become very dangerous.

Lazio vs Sassuolo Score Prediction

With the league positions so close and both teams carrying possible absences, this feels like a tightly contested match. Lazio have the advantage of playing at home, but Sassuolo have looked the more stable side this season.
