Lazio - Sampdoria betting tips and odds

Lazio are seen as favourites to win this match against Sampdoria. The betting odds indicate an easy win and anything but a home victory here would indeed be a big surprise.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Sampdoria, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 8.50.

Lazio are coming off of a relatively predictable victory at Salernitana, which they locked with a convincing 0:2 goal difference. However, it’s worth noting that the two teams were tied for more than half the match and the victory came on the back of several consecutive goals in the latter stages of the game.

Sampdoria will be looking to snag some points after the HT/FT home defeat they recorded in last round’s match against Bologna. To be frank, not many were optimistic about their chances of winning that bout, so they’ll need a better chance to climb up the $LEAUGE ladder.

Number 5th in the standings, Lazio have done a decent job so far. Still, they can afford to have loftier ambitions with a matchup such as this one ahead of them. Besides, there are quite a few rounds yet to be played.

As the away team and clear underdogs, Sampdoria don’t have a great shot at earning some points in Stadio Olimpico (Roma). However, they’ll need to give it their best unless they want to end up relegated. They’re placed at 19th and close to half the season is already over.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see The Biancocelesti as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Despite being seen as underdogs by most online bookmakers, the visiting team will be able to give their all this Monday. They have no reported injuries or suspensions going in, so at least they’ll be able to rely on their best players and strategies.

The 1.92 offered for Under 2.5 Goals bets in this match may seem a bit risky considering the market, but they’re well worth it compared to the probability of the outcome. That said, it’s a solid choice for value, but not necessarily safety.
