Ciro Immobile scored twice as Lazio comfortably won 3-1 at Sampdoria despite playing the final quarter of the match with 10 men on Sunday in Serie A.

Lazio moved level with city rival Roma, nine points behind Atalanta in fourth place and the final Champions League berth.

Fiorentina moved into fifth after winning 3-2 at Bologna.

Troubled Juventus can move back above Lazio and level on points with Fiorentina if it beats relegation-threatened Genoa later Sunday.

Lazio had only picked up one point from its past three league matches and that came in Thursday’s extraordinary 4-4 draw against Udinese.

It dominated from the start at Sampdoria and was 3-0 up by halftime following Sergej Milinkovi?-Savi?’s early opener and a double from Immobile.

However, Milinkovi?-Savi? was also sent off in the 67th minute after two yellow cards in a matter of moments — the first for a foul and the second for something he said to the referee.

But Samp only managed to pull one back in the final minute through Manolo Gabbiadini.
