Sampdoria vs Inter

Sampdoria had a mixed performance in this first part of the season. The goal of the Sampdoria is to achieve peaceful salvation compared to last year when the certainty of staying in the Italian top league came only in the last few games. The hosts currently sail in the middle of the table, in eleventh place with 17 points, plus six over Spezia third from bottom in the relegation zone and nine less than Sassuolo sixth in the Europa League zone. In the last round, Claudio Ranieri’s team was defeated 1-0 by Roma at the Olympic stadium, with Edin Dzeko scoring the winning goal.

Inter are in full swing for the title and are coming from a very positive streak in the league. The Nerazzurri, in fact, thanks to the 6-2 success against Crotone in the last round, with Lautaro Martinez as the star with a hat-trick, have collected the eighth consecutive victory, with Antonio Conte equaling the record of José Mourinho. The Nerazzurri team is second in the standings with 36 points, one less behind leaders Milan and six over third-placed Roma and, above all, nine points ahead of fifth-placed Juventus.

Sampdoria vs Inter lineups

The Sampdoria coach Claudio Ranieri should take the field with his usual 4-4-1-1. We are moving towards the exclusion of Quagliarella, with La Gumina in his place at the center of the attack, with Verre behind him on the line of attacking midfielders. The midfielders will be Damsgaard and the great ex, Antonio Candreva. In the middle of the field, however, there should be Thorsby and Adrien Silva, who will replace the suspended Ekdal.

Inter coach Antonio Conte should do without Lukaku, who came out battered from the match against Crotone, with the Belgian who will at most go to the bench despite the exams ruled out injuries. The player, therefore, will be saved for the match against Roma, scheduled for Sunday at 12:30. Forward space for Sanchez, who remained on the bench against the Calabrians, and Lautaro Martinez. The outsiders, with the task of carrying out the double phase, will be Hakimi and Darmian, which could make Young catch his breath. In the middle, Stefano Sensi could return from the first minute in place of the highly criticized Vidal, worst in the field with the rossoblu, alongside Brozovic and Barella.

• Sampdoria (4-4-1-1): Audero; Bereszynski, Yoshida, Tonelli, Augello; Candreva, Thorsby, A. Silva, Damsgaard; Verre; La Gumina.
• Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Batons; Hakimi, Barella, Brozovic, Sensi, Darmian; Lautaro Martinez, Sanchez.
