Preview
Lazio are flying. Gattuso's side sit second on 25 points, unbeaten after nine games with eight wins, and they hit six at Sassuolo on Tuesday for a fifth straight victory. Andrea Pinamonti is over his fever and came off the bench in that 6-2 win. Albert Gudmundsson is still out with his dislocated shoulder, while Lazio hope to have Nicolò Rovella and Adam Marusic back for this one. Cagliari arrive in a slump. They led early at Roma through an Nzola penalty but lost 4-2, a third straight league defeat after Monza and Bologna. Harry Winks missed that game with a lower-back problem, and Mattia Felici and Riyad Idrissi are out with cruciate ligament injuries. History backs the hosts too: Lazio are unbeaten in the last five meetings, with four wins, including 2-0 and 2-1 at the Olimpico. The market makes Lazio 66% favourites. We knock a little off for Gudmundsson and add a little for the form gap, and rate the home win at 65%.
Lazio's run and Cagliari's three straight defeats point one way. We back the home win at 1.49, rated at 65%.
