It's back home for Hellas, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Atalanta away with the result 2-1. Ceccherini found the net in that victory.

Midfield player Lazović got a match rating of 7.62 in that game, the max score being 10. Lazović hit five key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

Heartbreak before that as Hellas Verona lost 0-2 at Inter's place.

Sampdoria form and stats

There's been little loot from Sampdoria's travels as they have only collected 14 points from 16 away games in the Serie A. Sampdoria only have 4 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 2 draws. Three has not been a lucky number for Sampdoria as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Venezia match.

Home advantage was not enough for Sampdoria in their previous game as they lost hosting Salernitana, 1-2. Attacker Caputo got a player rating of 7.34 in the game. "Man of the match" Caputo scored one goal and hit one key pass.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Bologna wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
