Sampdoria vs Juventus Prediction
Sampdoria are currently 15th in the league, and have won two of their last five league games. Experienced attackers Francesco Caputo and Antonio Candreva have both scored seven league goals this season. Midfielder Stefano Sensi, who joined on loan from Inter Milan in January, has made a good start to his Sampdoria spell as well. Former Southampton attacker Manolo Gabbiadini has scored six so far.
Juventus, on the other hand, are 4th in the league, and have won three of their last five league games. They are seven points behind league leaders AC Milan, and given the nature of Serie A this season, Massimiliano Allegri's men still have a chance, however unlikely, of winning the league title.

Juventus will be the favourites to win this game.
