Lazio and Spezia will kick off the early match in Serie A on Sunday at the Stadio Olimpico. Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio are flying high with back-to-back Serie A wins.

The Biancocelesti will put their good form on the line against a mid-table Spezia team. Spezia start the weekend in 12th place with eight points from seven games. Four points separate Spezia from the bottom three in Serie A.

The Serie A title race is fascinating in the early stages of the new season. Lazio are fourth and just three points off first-place Atalanta and Napoli.

A win could help Lazio close the gap to the top of the table. A victory could also send the Biancocelesti to the top of the standings.

Lazio took nine points from their opening four home matches at the Stadio Olimpico. They outscored their four opponents at home 8-4. The only team to defeat Lazio at home were first-place Napoli, who had to come from behind to win the game.

Spezia are Serie A’s worst away side after three away fixtures. They have zero points from three away matches and scored zero goals on the road. Meanwhile, Spezia conceded six times to opponents on the road.

Lazio and Spezia have played four times since 2020, with the capital club winning all four games. Lazio outscored Spezia 14-7 in their last four matches. Games between these teams are usually lively, with goals scored.

Sarri will likely be without at least two players due to injury. Defender Nicolo Casale has a groin strain and will be out until the middle of October.

Midfielder Manuel Lazzari is nursing a hamstring strain and is a major doubt to make the squad.

Striker Ciro Immobile is second in Serie A with five goals. He has accounted for 38% of Lazio’s goals in Serie A this term.

Spezia coach Luca Gotti has five players on the injury list ahead of round No. 8. Defenders Arkdiusz Reca and Kelvin Amian Adou are both major doubts to make the squad. Midfielder Viktor Kovalenko has a groin injury and is set to miss the game.

Forwards Daniele Verde and Daniele Maldini are also expected to miss the game. Verde has a groin problem, and Maldini is recovering from a muscle strain.

Lazio are in excellent form at home, while Spezia are struggling on the road. The Biancocelesti should post a 3-0 win and continue their hot start to the new campaign.
