Monday Night Football in Serie A will see the basement club host the side on the 15th as Sampdoria go one-on-one against Empoli at the Luigi Ferraris from 19:45 GMT.
Key Highlights
Sampdoria have lost the last three matches in Serie A. The losses came against Fiorentina (5-0), Torino (0-2), and Udinese (2-0). Sampdoria conceded nine goals without scoring any in this run of three matches. This poor run of form sees Sampdoria prop up the table at 20th with 17 points, 11 points from safety with four matches remaining in Serie A. Sampdoria’s relegation is as good as confirmed at this point.
Empoli have seen an upturn in form, which has seen them win the last two matches. They beat Bologna at home (3-1) and defeated Salernitana at home (2-1). Before these pair of wins, Empoli lost three consecutive matches against Cremonese (1-0), Inter (0-3), and Sassuolo (2-1). Empoli will look to make it three wins on the trot when they face basement club Sampdoria on Monday.
Injury Report
Sampdoria will be without Ignacio Pussetto, Andrea Conti, Emil Audero, Gerard Yepes, and Mehdi Leris.
Empoli will miss the services of center-back Koni De Winter in the clash with Sampdoria.
Prediction
Empoli are the favorites to win the match against out-of-form Sampdoria and bolster their ability to climb the Serie A log into the mid-table areas.
