Sampdoria will be looking for their first win of the season when they welcome a high-flying Lazio to Stadio Luigi Ferraris for their Serie A Matchday four tie on Wednesday.
Both sides have experienced contrasting starts to the new Serie A campaign with Sampdoria failing to win any of their opening three matches, suffering two defeats and picking up a draw in the run, while Lazio have gone unbeaten in their opening three fixtures, winning twice and drawing one in the process.
Therefore both will be looking for a win on Wednesday for different reasons with Sampdoria looking to get their season off and running, while Lazio will be looking to maintain their strong unbeaten start to the campaign.
Lazio will fancy their chances though as they have won 10 of their last 12 Serie A meetings with Sampdoria. They also took all six points off Sampdoria last season and they will hope for the same this season.
