Sampdoria vs Como Prediction & Preview

Preview

This Saturday, the Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris sets the stage for an intriguing Serie B clash as Sampdoria welcome Como in their 35th round fixture. With kickoff at 14:15, all eyes will be on coaches Andrea Pirlo and Cesc Fàbregas, two former midfield maestros now pitting their wits against each other from the sidelines.

Sampdoria, currently positioned 8th with 45 points, have had a mixed bag of results recently. Their last outing was a goalless draw against Spezia away from home. At home this season, they have averaged scoring and conceding goals slightly above and below their overall average respectively (1.6 scored vs 1.2 conceded per game), which suggests a competitive yet vulnerable side.

In contrast, Como has been on a tear through Serie B. Positioned second with an impressive tally of 67 points, they stormed to victory in their most recent match with a convincing 5-2 win over FeralpiSalò away from home. Their form is formidable; having won all of their last five matches and maintaining an average of scoring more than two goals per game while playing away.

The head-to-head record leans in favor of Como as well - they secured a narrow win in their last encounter with Sampdoria this season by a scoreline of 1-0 at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia.

Bet

Given both teams' current form and scoring averages - particularly Como's strong offensive output on the road (averaging 2.2 goals) compared to Sampdoria's slight defensive weakness at home (conceding an average of 1.2 goals), betting on 'Over 2.5' goals seems like an appealing option here at odds of 2.05. With high stakes involved for both sides as we approach the business end of the season — especially for Como aiming to cement promotion — expect plenty of action aimed towards hitting that back net more than twice during this exciting matchup!
