Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Sampdoria and Verona go head to head at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in what is expected to be a close Serie A encounter. La Samp did well to beat Salernitana at the weekend, with the team putting an end to their three-game losing run, but despite the triumph they remained in the danger zone. All Depaoli, Vieira, and Damsgaard are out of contention with injuries, while Yoshida is a major doubt. You should know that Claudio Ranieri’s troops are eyeing their only second home win of the season.
The Mastini, on the other hand, showed character in their last league match, with the team beating Empoli thanks to Adrien Tameze’s late goal. Verona are high on confidence ahead of the trip to Genoa, and they are surely capable of holding Sampdoria to a draw. Both Kalinic and Bessa are back from suspension for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Vasco Regini):
Vasco Regini started his senior career at Cesena, but he made no more than ten appearances for the club (league) from 2007 to 2009. In 2009 he moved to Sampdoria and after ending his loan spells with the likes of Foggia and Empoli he returned to Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
