Sampdoria vs Inter Milan Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 12/02/2023, 04:44  by Daniel Ngulu in Serie A Predictions

Sampdoria will host Inter Milan in the final match of the 22nd week of matches in Serie A, with the two sides battling on opposite ends of the league. The hosts come into the game with 10 points, in 19th place, while Inter Milan are second with 43 points. Sampdoria are deep in the relegation mix, nine points below the safe zone and they need three points here. They’ve won just twice in their 21 matches so far and are among the poorest defensively in the league. The 2-2 draw with Monza in their last outing put an end to a run of five straight losses in all competitions. It was also the first time they scored in six matches. Their two wins in the league this season, against Cremonese and Sassuolo, have both come away from home. They will thus target a home win after failing in 10 league matches so far this season. Sampdoria have failed to score in eight of their last 10 away league games.

Inter Milan are coming from a key win in their season, a 1-0 victory over rivals AC Milan. That was their third straight win and fourth in five across all competitions in three of their last five matches, they have clean sheets and only failed to score in one of their last five matches – a 1-0 loss to Empoli in the Serie A. Inter have fallen 13 points behind league leaders Napoli and if they are going to mount a serious title challenge, they’ll have to start a fine run now. Realistically, Inter should just play for a top four place. A tight race for the Champions League slots means two points only separate Inter from fifth placed AC Milan. Away from home, they have one loss in the last six in the league and have won four. They’ve scored two or more goals in five of the last six away league matches.
