Juventus is going head to head with Sampdoria starting on 12 Mar 2023 at 19:45 UTC at Allianz Stadium stadium, Turin city, Italy. The match is a part of the Serie A. Juventus played against Sampdoria in 1 matches this season. Currently, Juventus rank 7th, while Sampdoria hold 20th position.
Having seen their progress checked last week in Rome, Juventus return to Serie A duty on Sunday, when they host struggling Sampdoria at the Allianz Stadium.
The teams meet in Turin, heading in opposite directions, as despite their defeat Juve are on the road to recovery from a 15-point penalty and have plenty to play for in the cups, while 20th-placed Samp seem set for relegation.
After losing last weekend to fall further behind in the Serie A standings – where Champions League qualification rivals Roma now sit 12 points clear of the Bianconeri – Juventus must start another long winning run if they are to claim a top-four finish from the ashes of a troubled campaign.
Moise Kean’s late red card in the 1-0 defeat to Roma was Juve’s fifth in the top flight this season – the league’s highest tally, alongside Empoli – and such ill discipline has undermined hopes of defying their points penalty to regain a place among Calcio’s elite.
Only three times under current coach Max Allegri have Juventus lost back-to-back league fixtures – though twice since he rejoined the club last term – so they will now expect to recover quickly in their more modest pursuit of overtaking sixth-placed Atalanta in the weeks ahead.
The Old Lady have an impressive record against the visitors, last losing at home to them in 2013. They have picked up seven wins in their last nine games across competitions.
Massimiliano Allegri’s men will travel to Germany in the crucial second leg of the Europa League Round of 16 just four days after this game. They have a narrow one-goal lead to defend, so Allegri is likely to rest a few key players here.
Sampdoria have struggled in the league this term. While the hosts have a few injury concerns, they should enough firepower to eke out a narrow win.
Prediction: Juventus 2-1 Sampdoria
This match will start from 1:15 AM
This match will take place on 13 March 2023
While Max Allegri has fitness concerns over Federico Chiesa and Angel Di Maria after Thursday’s Europa League victory, Juventus will welcome Paul Pogba back into the fold following his midweek omission for disciplinary reasons. The French midfielder turned up late for training and was subsequently censured, but Allegri can now consider his claims for a first start after several months sidelined by injury.
Mattia De Sciglio is available too, but Alex Sandro has a thigh problem which may require Leonardo Bonucci to step up from the bench and fill the Brazilian’s place in Juve’s back three.
While Arkadiusz Milik remains injured and Moise Kean is suspended due to his senseless sending-off in Rome, Dusan Vlahovic should start up front again. The latter has failed to find the net in his last four Serie A appearances; he has never gone five successive starts without scoring since moving to Italy from Serbia.
Juventus:- Perin; Rugani, Bonucci, Danilo; Cuadrado, Fagioli, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Miretti; Vlahovic
Sampdoria:- Ravaglia; Gunter, Nuytinck, Amione; Leris, Winks, Rincon, Augello; Djuricic; Rodriguez, Gabbiadini
Tip 1: Result – Juventus
Tip 2: Goals – Over/Under 2.5 Goals – Over 2.5
Tip 3: At least a goal to be scored in the second half – Yes
While Juventus have looked mean at the back over the past month or so, they haven’t been pulling up any trees further up the pitch, and as a consequence, many of their fixtures at home have been low-scoring affairs. Four of their last five contests at the Allianz Stadium have produced under 2.5 goals and the Old Lady could only toil to a 0-0 draw when they travelled to take on Sampdoria earlier in the campaign. Bettors shouldn’t expect fireworks in Sunday’s rematch and another stake on under 2.5 goals seems to fit the bill here.
