In the match of the eighth round of Serie A, Sampdoria from Genoa will host Monza on its field.
"Sampdoria"Marco Giampaolo's team is playing very poorly at the start of the new Serie A season. The team from Genoa lost in three consecutive matches before the pause for the matches of the national teams.
In the last round, Sampdoria lost to Spezia on the road with a score of 1:2. At the same time, the "sailors" showed an even more attacking game, but apart from scoring a goal in the 11th minute of the meeting, Giampaolo's team could not do anything more. Abdelhamid Sabiri scored from the transfer of Tommaso Augello. A minute later, Jason Murillo cut the ball into his own goal and it knocked Sampdoria down a little. At the same time, the teams went to the break with an equal score. In the second half, both teams played cautiously, but in the 72nd minute the second ball flew into the goal of the Mariners, and then Sampdoria could not win back.
As a result, after seven rounds, Sampdoria has only two points and Marco Giampaolo's team shares 19-20 places in the standings.
"Monza"And the team of Giovanni Stroppa made a big sensation in the last round and won a minimal victory over Juventus Turin.
At the same time, in the 40th minute of the meeting, Monza gained a numerical advantage after a direct red card from Angel Di Maria. As a result, in the second half, Monza was able to play more actively, which allowed it to win a minimal victory. Christian Gitkjaer scored the only goal in this meeting in the 74th minute from Patrick Chiurria's pass.
Thanks to this success, Monza scored four points, but so far Giovanni Stroppa's team is only 18th in the standings and then it will face a difficult struggle for survival.
ForecastIn this match, Sampdoria needs to outplay a direct competitor in the fight for survival.
If the Genoa team can't get the first victory of the season on its own field, Marco Giampaolo will probably be dismissed.
