Sampdoria - Fiorentina betting tips and odds

Sampdoria are no strangers to surprises but with 4.20 on home win here, such a result would be more of a miracle rather than surprise.

The match is most likely to go in the away team’s favour, though it’s by no means a sure thing. With 1.98 betting odds to win, Fiorentina have the upper hand going in, but all three possible outcomes are possible.

Sampdoria’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Inter as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 3:0 loss for Sampdoria.

La Viola are coming off from a relatively easy 1:2 victory in the previous round against Spezia. Fans were hoping for more decisiveness after the lukewarm first half – which they delivered for a 1:2 away win.

With a defensive record like the one Sampdoria boasts, their fans may have a reason to worry. They conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone – the advantage of playing at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris seems lost on them.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over La Viola’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Most predictions agree that Sampdoria won’t be walking away with any new points this Sunday, which is a big issue for them. They’re near the bottom of the standings placed at 18th, so they’ll have to be extra careful with how they proceed with the season.

Though most bookmakers give the visitors a better shot at winning, things didn’t go their way the last time these teams met in the Serie A. In fact, Sampdoria snatched a decisive victory last season despite being underdogs.

We’re in for an exciting showdown – due to a complete lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams have their full lineups at their disposal. Because they are more likely to win, though, this should work out in the visitors’ advantage.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 2.08 odds offered at Betway.
