Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Lecco, Sampdoria will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Reggiana in their last home game of the season. La Samp did well to put an end to their four-game winless run at the weekend and a triumph over Reggiana could see them book their spot in the playoffs. Forward Manuel De Luca is widely expected to return to the starting XI after sealing the victory at Lecco, whilst Alex Ferrari remains on the sidelines with injury.
I Granata, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Palermo and Modena. As Reggiana are eager to stay in the playoffs berth, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. As for the visiting team, both Natan Girma and Domen Crnigoj remain doubtful.
