Sampdoria vs Lazio prediction, preview, team news and more | Serie A 2022-23

The Serie A is back in action with a set of midweek fixtures this month as Lazio lock horns with Sampdoria on Wednesday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will want to win this game.

Lazio are currently in third place in the Serie A standings and have been fairly impressive so far this season. The Biancocelesti stunned Inter Milan with an impeccable 3-1 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.

Sampdoria, on the other hand, are in 18th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled this season. The home side suffered a shocking 4-0 defeat at the hands of Salernitana last week and cannot afford another debacle in this fixture.

Sampdoria have managed only one point from their three games so far but did manage to hold Juventus at bay this month. Lazio are the better team at the moment, however, and should be able to win this game.
