  • Sassuolo have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Roma form and stats

Roma are steadily winning Serie A games and points here at Centro Sportivo Lazio. 8 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats is the summary from 12 games. Roma has won so many consecutive home games (five in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Centro Sportivo Lazio. We remember; it was Torino.

Roma's previous match was a Europa League game also played at their home, ending 2-0 vs Real Sociedad. The home team hope to to repeat that performance. Kumbulla, defender, was given a rating of 7.44/10 in that game, top of the team. Kumbulla scored one goal and won 6 of 9 duels.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Juventus.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Roma matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat (from 4 games).

Trouble hitting the net? Looking at this club's last 13 league matches, 10 have seen less than three goals (under 2.5).

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Roma as they are travelling to their away game against Real Sociedad in the Europa League. That match is four days after this one.

The Roma fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 12 matches. Defensively Roma have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (5 in 12 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Sassuolo form and stats

There's been little loot from Sassuolo's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 13 away games in the Serie A. Sassuolo only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 4 draws.

Sassuolo won their last game, 3-2 versus Cremonese played at home. Bajrami came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Cremonese last time out, making the manager Dionisi feel like a tactical genius. Laurienté, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.93. Laurienté scored one goal, signed up for two assists, hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 4 of 6 times.

Prior to that result Sassuolo won their away game at Lecce. The scoreline was 1-0.

It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As for defending, Sassuolo rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 22 goals from these away matches.
