Sampdoria vs Sassuolo Prediction

Sampdoria Form

A solitary draw point prevents Sampdoria from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short in a 2-0 defeat against Udinese, before drawing 1-1 with Empoli. They came up empty-handed once again when AC Milan ran out as 5-1 winners. In their last six Serie A matches at home, Sampdoria have one win, while they've drawn three and lost two.

Many people had Sampdoria down as candidates for the drop before the season, but rescue is still within reach, as the season nears its end.

Sassuolo Form

In their previous three games, Sassuolo drew 1-1 with Bologna, then lost 4-2 against Inter and 1-2 against Monza. In their last six away matches in the Serie A, Sassuolo won twice, while also recording zero draws. They endured four defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying 14 goals conceded and eight scored.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Sampdoria welcome Sassuolo on Friday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.

Sampdoria won nine points from their last ten encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won two, scored ten and let in 16 goals. Sassuolo claimed six wins from 17 goals scored and 12 conceded from their past 11 matches against teams placed in the bottom six. This handed them 20 points to their account. Sampdoria are looking at a record of three wins, nine draws and 24 defeats in the Serie A this season. Sassuolo are looking at 12 wins, eight draws and 16 defeats in the Serie A.
