Roma vs Sampdoria Betting Tips

After a long stretch of mediocre form, Roma have picked up back-to-back wins against Frosinone and Sampdoria. It has been pretty crucial in terms of staying in contact with Serie A’s top four and also in terms of holding off AC Milan, who are currently sixth, but on the charge.

A 2-2 draw against Torino represents a solid result, but Sampdoria are far from safe when the Serie A’s relegation picture is taken into account. Their biggest problem has been goals conceded, they’ve given up 41 tallies across just 23 games.

Head-to-Head

Sampdoria carry a two-game winning streak in this match-up. They beat Roma 2-1 in the home tie this season and picked up a 2-0 victory in Rome in March of last season.

Team News

It hasn’t been an easy period for Roma in terms of injuries and even now, it is difficult to piece together the available players and likely XI for Sunday’s game. Radja Naingooaln, Miralem Pjanic, Daniele de Rossi, Lucas Digne, Vasilis Torosidis, Alessando Florenzo, Iago Falque and Edin Dzeko are all considered doubtful for one reason or another heading ino the clash with Sampdoria.

Reason for Betting Tips

Roma are playing good football, but we’re concerned about their injury form and also about some of Sampdoria’s recent positive form and results against the side. Meanwhile, Sampdoria can definitely score, but their defence is highly suspect. This feels like a potential back and forth style of game where both teams score.
