Sampdoria - Hellas Verona betting tips and odds

Sampdoria have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 3.05 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

The visiting team knows that beating Sampdoria on their own turf will be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

Sampdoria are coming off from a crushing 4:2 home loss against Juventus in the previous round. They managed an even score up until the 45-minute mark, but it all fell apart after that. To be fair, they were up against a vastly superior team, so the previous match can’t be reliably used to judge their form.

Hellas Verona’s home performance against Monza in the previous round wasn’t spectacular, ending in a 1:1 stalemate. Neither side managed to pull ahead, but Verona can be happier with this outcome considering the balance of power wasn’t in their favour.

Sampdoria have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

Hellas Verona seem to take on a rather passive role whenever they play as visitors. Records show two consecutive matches that featured less than 2 total goals between them and their opponents.

Sampdoria are in front of an important test this Sunday. The 3.05 odds on home win are not exactly promising but miracles do happen. That’s exactly what Sampdoria fans will be hoping for against Hellas Verona as their team continues to struggle.

The Serie A season is nearing its end and Hellas Verona’s business is far from being over. Currently occupying 18th place, they are 0 points away from safety. A win in Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris would be a huge boost o their morale but it won’t be easily attainable.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Verona won a Serie A match against Sampdoria in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 2.60 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1.63. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
