Sampdoria, Recent FormAfter a crushing 3-0 away loss to Roma, the Sampdoria squad will need to dig deep to build confidence among their squad. In that game they had 49% possession and managed 6 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Roma who had 28 attempts and 11 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 6 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 11 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. So far in the league this season, playing at home has not proved to be an advantage for them when it comes to scoring goals, having failed to score in 10 of their 14 games at Stadio Luigi Ferraris. As defensive records go, they don't have one to celebrate, with at least 1 goal shipped in 24 of their 28 league matches this season.
Results have been poor for Sampdoria recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table. They have certainly suffered from some poor form this season, having lost 19 matches from 28 in the league.
Cremonese, Recent FormCremonese will not be too troubled by their 3-1 home defeat against Atalanta, given the latter currently sit 14 places further up the league table than they do. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Atalanta's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Their boss Davide Ballardini is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 8 goals scored. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. They, for whatever reason, are unable to keep a clean sheet away from home, having not done so for the past 17 games.
An away win for Cremonese is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 14 games.
The Cremonese travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Cyriel Dessers, who's scored 3 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
It was not a positive ending for Cremonese last time they met Sampdoria in the league, with the game ending in a 0-1 defeat.
In their last 3 league meetings with Sampdoria, Grigiorossi have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
Sampdoria has won the last 2 games they've played against Cremonese in the league.
Sampdoria manager Dejan Stanković has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Emil Audero (Shoulder), Andrea Conti (Ankle), Ignacio Pussetto (Knee) and Abdelhamid Sabiri (Virus) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Davide Ballardini has a number of injury concerns in his Cremonese squad to contend with: Vlad Chiricheș (Muscle), Alex Ferrari (Muscle) and David Okereke (Physical discomfort)
