Prediction: 2-1
Udinese
Following a disappointing loss to Empoli, Sampdoria will be aiming to pick up vital three points from Sunday’s clash against Udinese. La Samp have been struggling under Dejan Stankovic, who is under big pressure ahead of Matchday 19, but this game could be the turning point for the hosts. England midfielder Harry Winks, who produced a fine display in the last league match, is pushing for a start, whereas all De Luca, Quagliarella, Conti, and Pussetto are out of contention with injuries.
The Zebrette, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to Arnautovic-less Bologna, and given the importance of Sunday’s game for Dejan Stankovic’s troops, home win should be considered. Adam Masina should be the only absentee in the away team. In their last meeting in Genoa the two teams played out a thrilling 3-3 draw.
