General match analysis

Lazio sit top of the table and remain unbeaten after 9 matches, while ninth-placed Cagliari have lost 4 of their 9 games. In the last 5 rounds, the hosts recorded 4 wins and scored 17 goals, whereas the visitors won just once, scored 4 and conceded 11. At home, Lazio average 2 goals per match and have yet to fail to score, while Cagliari average 1.2 goals scored and 1.8 conceded away from home. The hosts’ advantage is also reflected in the quality of chances: Lazio’s home xG is 1.69, compared with Cagliari’s away xG of 1.29; the visitors also allow opponents chances worth an average of 1.94 xG. Cagliari have won 3 of their 5 away matches, but their recent run of 3 defeats in 5 games points towards a Lazio win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Lazio have averaged just 0.5 goals at home and failed to score in 50% of those matches, although their recent attacking form has been significantly stronger, with 3.4 goals per game across their last five fixtures. Cagliari conceded an average of 2.2 goals over that period, making a Lazio goal seem likely. The bigger question is whether the visitors will score: they have averaged 0.8 goals in their last five matches, with an xG of 1.04. The case for BTTS - Yes is supported by 80% of Lazio’s matches in their last five, but Cagliari recorded just 40% over the same period, while Lazio’s home rate for the season is only 25%. Therefore, the slightly more likely scenario is that at least one team fails to score (BTTS - No).

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Lazio have averaged 3.4 goals scored over their last 5 matches, while Cagliari have conceded 2.2 goals per game over the same period, pointing to at least two goals. The xG figures support this signal: Lazio have recently averaged 1.79 xG, while Cagliari have allowed opponents chances worth 2.08 xG. However, caution is warranted, as Lazio’s home matches so far have never featured more than 2 goals, and the hosts have averaged just 0.5 goals scored there. Over 1.5 is therefore a stronger pick than Over 2.5: it accounts for Lazio’s improved attack without requiring them to break their low-scoring home trend to the same extent as the higher line.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Lazio have won 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of 3.4 goals, while Cagliari have won just once and averaged 0.8 goals. The hosts had a lead at the break in 3 of those 5 matches, scoring an average of 1.8 first-half goals compared with 0.4 for the visitors. Their ability to maintain that lead is also supported by their second-half form: Lazio have averaged 1.6 goals after the break across their last 5 matches, while Cagliari have conceded 1.6. Caution is warranted, however, as Lazio have averaged just 0.5 goals in their matches at home so far, while Cagliari have won 60% of their away games. Despite this, the teams’ recent form and Lazio’s first-half advantage point to the hosts leading at the break and winning the match, making 1/1 the indicated HT/FT outcome.
