[Serie A] Salernitana Vs Lazio Preview

The Serie A returns this weekend with another set of matches as Salernitana will play Maurizio Sarri's Lazio at the Stadio Arechi, this will be an important match for the two teams as they seek to advance in the standings.

Lazio is currently sixth in the Serie A table, having experienced a significant improvement following their slow start to the league campaign. The Biancoceleste defeated CFR Cluj by a single goal in their previous game, they will want to repeat that result this weekend.

Contrastingly, Salernitana is currently 16th in the standings and has not been at their best this season. The home team had a 1-0 defeat against Hellas Verona just before this game, they recently underwent a new head coach. Now, they must devote extra effort to regaining their former status in this match.

Mattia Zaccagni will be absent because of suspension, and Maurizio Sarri also will be without another of his most important selections on Sunday afternoon, as Alessio Romagnoli sustained a hamstring injury in the loss to Atalanta last week.

Lazio, who have won just two of their last eight league games, will be hoping to capitalize on their hosts' struggles on Sunday and avoid going four straight Serie A games without a win for the first time since 2020. The pressure is on as one of five clubs targeting three Champions League spots behind Napoli.

Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Lazzari, Casale, Patric, Marusic; Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Immobile, Pedro

Prediction: Salernitana - Lazio = 0 - 1
