Lazio beat the "Ferraris" and did it quite easily 3-1 against a Sampdoria that woke up too late, when the Biancocelesti had already put the match on their side. It all happens in the first half: Milinkovic-Savic opens, then expelled, Immobile closes with a brace. In the second half, Gabbiadini's goal is only useful for statistics. D'Aversa finds Ekdal, who has served the disqualification, in defense confirmed Chabot, who won the ballot with Ferrari. Midfield winger Candreva and Verre, attack entrusted to Quagliarella and Gabbiadini. On the other hand Sarri changes a lot compared to the midweek shift by inserting Strakosha between the posts, Hysaj and Marusic on the lanes with Luiz Felipe and Acerbi in the center.In midfield Basic preferred to Luis Alberto while Felipe Anderson is excluded in the trident: in his place Zaccagni.

The game is released in the 7th minute: Immobile works well a ball for Zaccagni, the former Verona serves Milinkovic-Savic low shot who bags into the net with his left foot. Five goals in this league for the Serbian. Ten minutes later the Biancocelesti double: misunderstanding between Chabot and Thorsby that favors Zaccagni; the number 20 enters the area and somehow manages to serve Immobile, vertical movement of the Lazio bomber and a dirty conclusion that goes out behind Audero. The Sampdoria suffer the blow and are unable to react. At 33 'still Zaccagni for Immobile, Audero instinctively sends to the side. It was the prelude to the trio of 'Ciro' - then substituted at the interval for a blow as a precaution - who turns into the box and crosses right: Lazio ahead by three goals.

In the second half Sampdoria tries to get out and becomes dangerous with Thorsby, Strakosha moves away. At 56 'again the Albanian goalkeeper protagonist with an amazing intervention on a close header by Gabbiadini. At 67 'Milinkovic-Savic leaves his team outnumbered for a double yellow: first for a foul on Adrien Silva, then for protests over the whistle of the referee. In the final minutes he shortens Sampdoria with Gabbiadini but it is too late. It ends here: Lazio wins, Sampdoria stretched 3-1 (in the photo the second goal from Immobile).

Incredible feat of Verona who went 3-0 away against Venice, overturns the match in the second half and wins 4-3 at the end of a game full of emotions. First fraction dominated by the hosts who scored with Ceccaroni, Crnigoj and Henry, everything changes in the second 45 'with the yellow-blue who shorten thanks to an own goal by Henry, then the lagunari remain in 10 for the expulsion of Caccaroni and Caprari on a penalty and Simeone with a brace complete the work. In the standings, the Scaligeri climb to ninth place with 23 points, while Venezia remains stationary at 15 in fifteenth position together with Sampdoria.

The first half is a monologue by Venezia. Zanetti's team risks something on a Lazovic raid but then puts the turbo. Ceccaroni signs the one to zero on Henry's assist, shortly thereafter Johnsen - who took over from the injured Okereke - jumps Casale and serves Crnigoj, who finds an encore of precision. Hellas leaves the field and also collects the trio: Dawidowicz and Montipò mess in an apparently harmless situation, Henry is good at getting in the way and signing the 3-0 out of pure opportunism.

The match changes in the second half. Tudor touches the right strings in the Penzo locker room, the yellow-blue team has a jolt of pride and gets back on track in just over twenty minutes. The first center is an own goal, by Henry, who deviates in a fortuitous way on the developments of a corner and prank Romero. The guests attack with a beaten spur in search of the goal that would definitively reopen the games: at 62 'Ceccaroni hits with his hand in the area on Faraoni's close header: an inevitable red for the central and a penalty converted by Caprari. In the final, the great protagonist is Simeone who beats Romero with the 'scavetto' on an assist from Faraoni in the 27th minute and in the 39th minute he gives the three points to his team: the Cholito sets up his own,takes aim from a distance and beats the opposing goalkeeper with a torpedo that sends Verona into ecstasy (in the photo the exultation of Simeone).

Spezia and Sassuolo equalize and share the stakes. The first half stopped at 1 to 0 in favor of the hosts who scored with Manaj in the 35th minute, on a cross from Reca. Sassuolo dangerous in the third minute with a shot from Berardi that hit the crossbar. At 16 ', Lo Spezia had a goal canceled for offside. And on 31 'a missed opportunity for Sassuolo with another crossbar this time hit by Scamacca. In the second half Raspadori enters the ranks of Sassuolo who takes over from Henrique and then Toljan in place of Muldur. Spezia doubles in the 47th minute with Gyasi after Ayon won a rebound and passed him the ball by shooting and goal. But Sassuolo did not give up and in the 66th minute Raspadori scored from an action born from a cross from Berardi. At 79 'Raspodori is still recovering a game that is worth one point each to the two teams: pass by Berardi, dribbling between two opponents and a low shot right foot that beats Provedel (in the photo Berardi in action).
