Prediction: 2-0
Sampdoria
Roma will look to recover from the Derby della Capitale defeat when they take on Sampdoria on Matchday 28. The Giallorossi suffered a dip in form, with the team losing three of their last four league fixtures, but they are still seen as favourites to beat Sampdoria in front of home fans. All Marash Kumbulla, Roger Ibanez, Bryan Cristante, and Gianluca Mancini are banned for the match, while Lorenzo Pellegrini and Rick Karsdorp remain in the recovery room.
Nemanja Matic is pushing for a start as well as Tammy Abraham, who is eager to put an end to his dreadful goalless run. La Samp, on the other hand, defeated Verona 3-1 on home soil to keep their survival hopes alive, but given their poor away record (2-2-9) in the 2022/2023 Serie A campaign, home win should be considered. As for the away side, Bram Nuytinck misses out through suspension, while both Sam Lammers and Emil Audero are sidelined with injuries.
