Prediction: 1-0
Bologna
As expected, Sampdoria were beaten by Juventus in Turin in their last league match. La Samp experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the 3-0 defeat to the title holders and, as a result, they are now five points behind the Europa League berth in the Serie A standings. Sampdoria aim to get back on course and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Wednesday's football match against Bologna, who have nothing to play for in the season finale. The Rossoblu are stuck in the middle of the Serie A table and seeing that they often struggle on the travels, we believe that Roberto Donadoni's men are going to return home empty-handed from the trip to Genoa. Bologna did well to beat Hellas Verona in their last league fixture, but La Samp are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the visitors than their previous rivals.
