On Sunday afternoon, Salernitana hosts Lazio at the Stadio Arechi in a game that could have significant implications at both ends of the Serie A table.
The home team is just four points above the relegation zone in Serie A after a poor recent run of form in the Italian top flight.
A 1-0 defeat against Verona last time out means that Davide Nicola’s team has now won just one of their last ten matches in the Italian top flight, including a run of four defeats in their previous five league games.
Salernitana has struggled for goals of late in Serie A, as they have not scored in three of their last four league matches.
The Granata has a poor recent home record in Serie A, as they have failed to win in their last five matches on home soil.
Salernitana has also conceded at least two goals in four of their last five home league games.
The team from the Italian capital are in the thick of the fight for the Champions League spots in Serie A, as they currently lie in sixth place in the Italian top-flight table, just two points adrift of the teams in the top four of Serie A.
A three-game winless run in Serie A, including a 2-0 home defeat against Lazio last time out, has hindered the visitor’s chances of moving into the top four.
Lazio has a mixed recent away record in Serie A, although they have won just once in their previous four games on their travels.
However, they have taken four points from a possible six on their travels in the Italian top flight.
