Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Wednesday’s football game at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia pits together Como and Sampdoria, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Como look unstoppable at the moment, with the team extending their winning run to three games at Cittadella (3-0) and they must be high on confidence ahead of the midweek fixture. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Patrick Cutrone, who scored a brace in the crushing of La Citta, while Alberto Cerri remains doubtful.
La Samp, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Parma in the Serie B derby at the weekend and they are now on a quest to return to winning ways. Away triumph, though, should not be considered as Como have been producing excellent displays of late. Taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the horizon. Both Alex Ferrari and Leonardo Benedetti are injured for the visiting team.
