Sampdoria is 8th in Serie A, only 4 points from the last Champions League placing. Leece is 13th in Serie A, but only 2 points from the relegation zone.

Sampdoria is a good home team, but their recent form is not so consistent. Leece is in better form, with only 1 lost in last 8 games. Leece has been a poor traveller, but they are now undefeated in last 5 away games, winning 4 in a row before the 0-0 draw with Empoli whom is also doing well at home.

Both teams will need points for different reason. Leece had done better on the road than at home in last few games. They may lost their last game, but it was a home game and I believe that will not affect their away game performance. Sampdoria had won their last 2 home games and they will also want to go for a 3rd home win in a row. However I believe Leece will be a hard nut to crack. They had not conceded any goals in 3 of their last 4 games. Leece will also be having difficulty scoring as they had scored only 2 goals in last 4 games.

Sampdoria has a good home form and Leece recent away form is very good. Sampdoria will find it hard to score against Leece and so will Leece having difficulty in scoring. I believe match has a higher chance of ending in a low scoring draw. I will bet Leece +1/2 on asian handicap.
