In their last match together, Sampdoria won by a score of 1 to 0. Antonino La Gumina struck first for Sampdoria in the 55th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Salernitana was frustrated by Sampdoria’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board.

Abdelhamid Sabiri has been the most effective weapon for Sampdoria lately. The midfielder has netted 2 goals in his last five matches.
