Cremonese vs Sampdoria Prediction and Betting Tips | October 24th 2022
Cremonese play host to Sampdoria at the Giovanni Zini Stadium in round 11 of the Italian Serie A on Monday.
Both sides head into the game off the back of securing their place in the next round of the Coppa Italia and will look to build on that result.
Cremonese secured their place in the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia last Thursday when they claimed a 4-2 win over lower-tier side Modena.
Manager Massimiliano Alvini will hope their cup win can serve as a springboard for a fine run of form as they turn their attention to Serie A, where they are without a win in their 10 matches this season.
With four points from a possible 30, Cremonese are currently 19th in the league table, one point above Monday’s visitors in last place.
Meanwhile, Sampdoria saw off Ascoli on penalties in the round of 32 of the Coppa Italia last time out after a 2-2 draw in extra time.
They are also without a win in Serie A this season, losing seven and claiming three draws in 10 matches.
Their dire start to the league campaign has been owing to their struggles at the attacking end of the pitch, where they have scored just five goals so far.
