Three days before the Champions League Round of 16 first leg against FC Bayern in the Champions League, Lazio gave themselves a boost with a league win. The club from the Italian capital celebrated a 1-0 victory over Sampdoria in the Italian Serie A. The win saw them move up to fourth place in the table for the time being - although their direct rivals can leapfrog them once more later in the matchday.

Seventh home win in a row

Luis Alberto scored the winner in the 24th minute to extend the Laziali's winning streak at home. Since mid-December, coach Simone Inzaghi's team have won all seven of their competitive matches at the Stadio Olimpico.
