Sampdoria take on the visitors Palermo in the round 7 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played at Stadio Luigi Ferraris on Sunday, October 2nd.
Sampdoria had two back-to-back wins at the start of the season but such successful beginning was followed by four defeats in a row with 3-8 on aggregate so the team is now on 17th place in the Serie A standings with only six points gained. Marco Giampaolo’s men still can’t recover from bitter loss on matchday 3 when they showed excellent football but lost to Roma 2-3 with conceded late decider. Sampa managed to score only one goal in their following three games and they clearly aren’t in their best shape.

Palermo have slow start, taking only five points in six starting matches and occupy 18th position. The visitors’ biggest problem is their performance in offense as they’ve managed to score only three goals so far this season. And it’s hard to imagine how the team can solve this problem as they simply have no skilled strikers in their team. At the same time, Palermo managed to gain all their points in away games, beating Atalanta 0-1 and drawing with Crotone and Inter, both 1-1.
Sampdoria and Palermo are of about the same level and current Serie A standing confirms it. We should expect the upcoming match to be alike to previous Palermo’s games with small number of goals combined by the opponents.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals.
