Sampdoria, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 away defeat by Empoli will have left the Sampdoria squad feeling a little deflated. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to Empoli, who had 16 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Dejan Stanković where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table, although he will still have one eye on his defence which have shipped 10 in the same period. Concern will be mounting for him if his team can't end their current dry spell in front of goal at home, which now extends to 5 games. This season, their defensive frailties have certainly been apparent, having conceded at least 1 goal in 16 of their 18 league games.
Serious concerns will be mounting for i Blucerchiati, having gone without a home league win in their last 9 games and losing the last 6 games in a row at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
Udinese, Recent FormThe Udinese players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Bologna recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. In that game they had 51% possession and managed 20 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Bologna who had 15 attempts and 2 on target.
Having scored 6 goals and conceded 9 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late.
A win for Udinese is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 10 games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Sampdoria, losing 2-1 to Udinese.
Sampdoria will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Bianconeri Friuliani having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 7 meetings.
Udinese has had a poor run in this fixture when they visit Sampdoria, being unable to find a win from any of their last 9 league meetings at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
Manolo Gabbiadini has scored in each of Sampdoria's last 3 home games against Udinese.
Sampdoria manager Dejan Stanković has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Manuel De Luca (Meniscus), Ignacio Pussetto (Physical discomfort) and Fabio Quagliarella (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Udinese manager Andrea Sottil ahead of this clash, with Adam Masina (Knee) missing out, which gives Sottil a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
