Sampdoria – AC Milan Serie A Prediction and Preview

Preview

Sampdoria – AC Milan: 24th September 2017

Over expectations

Being generally seen as a true midfielder in Italy, Sampdoria has just started promising the new season. With two victories in the first two stages, “Il Doria” seems to have been a bit slower in postponing the AS Roma dispute, counting for stage three. Thus, the previous two rounds brought only two draws for Giampaolo, of which Verona (0-0) was, indeed, disappointing. Even so, we can not deny the fact that Sampdoria plays football, has an offensive style, creates opportunities, and the defiant still unconfirmed defeat of the Milanese “devil” may suffer from this.

Verdict delayed

We might say “AC Milan Made in China” goes sensational this season, and expectations have been met so far. With 9 victories out of 10 official matches played in all competitions, “rossonerii” managed excellently the situation under the command of Vincenzo Montella. Even so, the “devils” can not be judged by duels with CSU Craiova, Shkendija, Crotone or Spal. Basically, Milan’s only strong match in this season came with a humiliating defeat, 1-4 on the “Olimpico” in front of Lazio. So it remains to be seen if the “devils” pass the test called Sampdoria, a test that is more difficult than it seems at first glance.
