AS Roma vs Sampdoria Preview
The Giallorossi are up against this tide. It has endured a really busy season in Italy's top domestic league, finishing without a title at twelfth place with only 4 wins from 16 possible. Its form in recent games has been most jittery with just 1 out of the last five encounters ending in victory. This would be a golden chance for the team to uplift morale and come closer to silverware.
Roma is going to depend on Paulo Dybala: his creativity, and sharpness at the end of the field will be essential for their attack. Another player who could have a very important role is Alexis Saelemaekers, who has shown some bright flashes so far this season and is expected to be involved both offensively and defensively.
Like Roma, this game will hold much importance to Sampdoria as well. Sampdoria currently finds itself in the dismal 15th place at the standings of Serie B. The current season has so far failed in all terms and appears quite inconsistent in performances, making it really poor. Having amassed just four wins from the seventeen games, they come into this encounter as obvious underdogs. The side of manager Leonardo Semplici will have to produce a disciplined effort and ask for a miracle against a much stronger opponent.
The attention will be on goalkeeper Simon Ghidotti, who will have to be at his very best to deny Roma's attacking firepower. The forward duo for Sampdoria, Tutino, and Coda, will try to exploit any defensive lapses and maximize their few chances.
With both teams carrying the cross and needing a positive result, this encounter promises to be an exciting fight.

AS Roma vs Sampdoria Match Prediction
AS Roma will start this fixture as clear favorites despite their struggles in Serie A. Their superior squad depth, attacking options, and home advantage at the Stadio Olimpico give them a significant edge over Sampdoria.
Sampdoria, on the other hand, will aim to stay compact defensively and frustrate Roma’s attack while looking for counter-attacking opportunities. However, their poor form and inability to score consistently make it unlikely for them to pull off an upset.
