Sampdoria and Sassuolo will lock horns with each other in Serie A this week. The match between I Blucerchiati and I Neroverdi will be held at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa and is scheduled to kick off at 7:45pm UK time on Friday.

Sampdoria

Sampdora are an established club in Serie A, but they will play in the second division of Italian football next season. That’s because I Blucerchiati have had one of their worst seasons in recent history and have been relegated from Serie A.

Dejan Stankovic’s side are at the foot of the Serie A table at the moment with 18 points from 36 matches. Sampdoria fished 15th in the standings last season, and although they were expected to fight for survival in the top flight of Italian football this season, not many would have expected them to end up in the bottom three.

Sampdoria will head into the Serie A match against Sassuolo at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa on Friday evening on the back of a 5-1 hammering at the hands of AC Milan at San Siro in the league. It came after a 1-1 draw with Empoli at home in Serie A and followed a 2-0 loss at the hands of Udinese in the league.

Team News:

Sampdoria are likely to line up in a 4-1-4-1 formation against Sassuolo. Quagliarella will lead the line for the home team. Ravaglia will be in goal for Sampdoria.

Sassuolo

Sassuolo are starting to establish themselves in Serie A and do not tend to fight for survival in the top flight of Italian football anymore. I Neroverdi ended up as high as 11th in the Serie A table last season, and they now look set to finish in mid-table once again.

Alessio Dionisi’s side are 13th in the Serie A table at the moment with 44 points from 36 matches. They are as many as 14 points above the bottom three and are having yet another good season. The Sassuolo fans will be pleased with the team this campaign.

Sassuolo will head into the Serie A match against Sampdoria at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa this week on the back of a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Monza in the league. It came after a 4-2 loss to Inter Milan at San Siro in the league and followed a 1-1 draw with Bologna at home in Serie A.

Team News:

Sassuolo could line up in a 4-3-3 formation. Consigli will stay in goal, while Bajrami, Pinamon and Berardi will be the three forwards.

Key Factors to Consider

• Sampdoria have won 3 out of 36 Serie A matches all season.
• Sampdoria have scored 22 goals in 36 Serie A matches all season.
• Sassuolo have lost 3 of their last 6 Serie A games.
• Sassuolo have conceded 56 goals in 36 Serie A games.
• Sassuolo have lost 16 out of 36 Serie A games this season.

Conclusion

Sampdoria are down and out, and it is hard to see their players put up any sort of fight against a Sassuolo team who also have nothing to play for. It is very likely that this game will end in a win for the visiting team.
