LiontipsLazio vs Sampdoria. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022-23 Serie A (February 27, 2023).
Command Analysis
Lazio definitely hope to be in the top four by the end of the season - it's not an easy task for the team, but Maurizio Sarri is doing everything possible to justify the club's trust in him. In the first half of the tournament, the Eagles had some unimpressive stretches, but they managed to stay close to the top four, and with Juventus losing 15 points, the goal of getting Champions League became even more realistic.
Currently, Lazio are in fifth place in the Serie A standings with 42 points to their name, two points behind fourth-placed AC Milan. Atalanta, who also want to get a ticket to Europe's most important club competition, are trailing Lazio by one point. This week, Lazio secured their place in the round of 16 of the Conference League, where they will face AZ Alkmaar.
Sampdoriastarted the season in a very poor shape. It was immediately noticeable that their season preparation was a complete failure. They couldn't gain fitness at the start of their campaign, either, and a series of defeats found them at the bottom of the Serie A table. Marco Giampaolo lost control of the situation and was inevitably fired.
His successor Dejan Stankovic received a completely demoralized and disassembled team - there was no hope for a quick transformation. Sampdoria gradually improved their quality of football, but they still cannot win. Currently, the Blucerchiati are second to last in the table with 11 points, and the gap from the 17th place, which would save them from relegation, is eight points.

Tip and bets
Lazio haven't been delivering high performance lately, but they probably will be able to find a goal against Sampdoria, who do not have a strong defensive line. At the same time, we don't expect the visiting team to just park the bus - they need points and will have to take risks. We expect both sides to score.
Our prediction – both to score
Lazio looked decent in their recent matches. They failed to beat Cluj in the last game, but it was not necessary as the Romans already had an advantage obtained at home. In between the Conference League matches, Lazio easily beat Salernitana. The Eagles will strive to get a ticket to the Champions League, but the competition it very tight, so they have almost no room for error. The hosts are favourites and will most likely get three points, but Sampdoria are also highly motivated and will not give up without a fight.
Second bet - Lazio to win by 1 goal
