Salernitana welcome mid-table Lazio to Stadio Arechi in the first round 13 encounter of the Serie A weekend on Saturday.
The cellar dwellers are winless this season, while Maurizio Sarri's men picked up one point from an available six before the international break.
The club from Salerno thought a first Serie A victory in 2023-24 was on the cards after racing to a 2-0 lead at Sassuolo, only for the Neroverdi to peg them back as it ended 2-2.
In the end, the Granata were hanging on for a point as Guillermo Ochoa was forced into several saves to prevent a third consecutive defeat and an eighth to start the season.
The upshot of Salernitana's point in the previous round means Inzaghi's team are the only side in the competition yet to pick up maximum points this season, as Cagliari and Udinese have won games in recent gameweeks.
Be that as it may, they are only five points adrift of 17th-placed Empoli, meaning their winless start is not unsalvageable, even if that first win must come soon to prevent the gap from widening.
