Champions Napoli will on Sunday host bottom-placed Sampdoria in the final matchday of the 2022/23 Italian Serie A season. Napoli will seek a win here to close out their triumphant season with victory as well as reach the 90-point mark. After the match, Gli Azzurri will also finally get their hands on the league trophy. It will be an afternoon of high emotion as it will also be head coach Luciano Spaletti’s last match in charge. The Italian has announced that he will step down from his role and will take a year-long sabbatical. Thus the need to seek all three points here. I Partenopei have won eight straight matches against Sampdoria so will be confident of subduing them once again. As they approached to win the title with games to spare, Napoli took their foot off the gas and have struggled to win matches. They have claimed only four wins from their last 12 matches across all competitions. Last time out they drew 2-2 away to Bologna.

Sampdoria have already been relegated and will finish the season as the bottom-placed team. They will however seek to go down in style and what better way than to dumpen Napoli’s coronation day? A difficult season finally comes to an end and with it an 11-year stay in the Italian topflight. Sampdoria have managed only three wins all season and have lost a whopping 24 matches. They have also conceded the joint most goals with 69. I Blucerchiati are without a win in their last 10 matches with six of those fixtures ending in defeat. They however come to this match having avoided defeat in their last match, a 2-2 draw with Sassuolo at home. Dejan Stankovic’s men have rediscovered their scoring in recent outings and will hope this match at least sees them hit the 20-point mark.
