Sudtirol vs Sampdoria Prediction & Betting Tips

Recent form backs up the table

Looking at a broader run of matches for both sides, which stretches back through preseason friendlies and last season's fixtures rather than just this campaign, Sudtirol have drawn more games than they've lost. Sampdoria, across that same wider sample, have lost close to half of their outings and shipped plenty of goals along the way.

Comparative Team Statistics: Sudtirol vs Sampdoria

History's been fairly even between them

These two have faced off regularly since 2023, and neither has run away with it. Sudtirol have taken the win in most of the meetings, including a 3-1 success and a couple of 1-0 wins, but Sampdoria have had their moments too.

Notably, the most recent meeting back in May went Sampdoria's way, a 1-0 win away from home. So recent head-to-head form doesn't fully back up the current table gap.

A clear early gap in the table

Sudtirol sit second with 11 points from five games, while Sampdoria are down in 17th with just four points from the same number of matches. That's a big early split for two sides who've swapped positions in this fixture over the years.

Five games is still a small sample for any Serie B season, so there's room for things to shift before late October. Right now, though, one side is thriving and the other is scrapping.

The table alone points towards Sudtirol as the side in far better shape.

Names doing the damage at both ends

For Sampdoria, Insigne has two goals from four matches in the sampled data, so he's someone they'll lean on going forward. Sudtirol's Mixtur has matched that scoring rate, with two goals in three matches, and he's got support creatively from Rispoli, who's chipped in three assists in five games.

Sudtirol:

Best scorers:

K. Mixtur - 2

Penalty cards:

G. Stabile x 1 x 1

Sampdoria:

Best scorers:

L. Insigne - 2

Penalty cards:

O. Abildgaard x 1

L. Henderson x 3

M. Cicconi x 3

On discipline, Henderson and Cicconi have both picked up three yellow cards for Sampdoria in five matches, while Sudtirol's Stabile has a yellow and a red in just three appearances. Worth keeping an eye on if either side needs to manage bookings.
