"Getting March underway with a 2-0 loss away at Torino, the Eagles have come under some serious scrutiny. Failing to claim a Coppa Italia first-leg advantage earlier in the week as they eventually had to settle for a 2-2 stalemate at home against Atalanta, Sarri's side have claimed just a single win from any of their previous nine appearances across all competitions within 90 minutes."
"In fact, Monday's hosts have remarkably secured just a sole win from any of their last eight consecutive showdowns at the Stadio Olimpico - a rut that stems all the way back to December 4th."
"As for the visitors, embarking on what has become a sensational purple patch, Sassuolo certainly find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Rightfully receiving a string of public praise from across Italy's elite, the Nerovedri have come skyrocketing up the Serie A standings."
Lazio hosts Sassuolo on Monday night in a Serie A match where the home side desperately needs a positive result. Manager Maurizio Sarri faces significant pressure following recent poor performances, including a 2-0 loss to Torino and a 2-2 draw with Atalanta in the Coppa Italia. Lazio has won only once in their last nine matches across all competitions and just once in their last eight home games at the Stadio Olimpico, a streak dating back to December. Key players Samuel Gigot and Nicolo Rovella remain unavailable through injury, though Boulaye Dia and Pedro could feature. Sassuolo arrives in contrasting form, enjoying a purple patch that has propelled them into Serie A's top half under manager Fabio Grosso.
