Sampdoria take on the visitors Atalanta in the round 2 match of Italian Serie A. The match takes place at Stadio Luigi Ferraris on Sunday, August 28th.
Sampdoria had quite disappointing last season, finishing only 15th in Serie A with 40 points and 48-61 goal difference. The start of new season is quite successful for the team as they have thrashed Bassano Virtus in the Coppa Italia match, 3-0, and followed it with victory over Empoli in the first match of the season under Marco Giampaolo. We should note that Sampdoria lost all their key midfielders this summer but still show nice football.

At first site, Atalanta had quite intensive transfer campaign, making over 60 transfers. However, majority of signings was returned loanees, who got sent once again on loans to different teams. First match of the season at Lazio turned to be quite a show as Atalanta started the match with conceding three goals but almost save one point in the clash that ended with 3-4 defeat. The first match of the season showed that the team need to improve their defensive line.
Sampdoria and Atalanta exchange wins regularly and neither of the teams have advantage in head-to-heads. Sampdoria left nice impression in starting matches of the season and have home-field advantage while Atalanta didn’t show solid football in defense against Lazio. This is why we should expect Sampdoria to be closer to a victory.
Prediction for the match: Sampdoria to win with +0.0 Asian handicap.
