 An inconsequential game by all means on the last weekend in Serie A with nothing up for stakes even if both teams win on the night. But on a larger angle, a win is important for both teams going into the next season. Sassuolo have a bad head to head stat which they would like to rectify while Lazio would try to keep the better head to head stat moving. Lazio given their present position in the table looks favorites to win this nonetheless.

Tip 1: Total Goals under 3.5
