Italian Serie A is back in action this weekend as Bologna takes a trip to the Luigi Ferraris stadium for a clash with Sampdoria. This intriguing fixture is set for kick off on 7th November 2021 at 17:00.
Sampdoria are in two game losing streak and they will be looking to avoid a third Serie A loss in a row as they head into this match. I Blucerchiati suffered devastating 3-0 defeat in the hand of Torino in their previous league match and we expect improved performance in this match as they look to return to their winning ways.
Bologna on the other have hand is in the middle of the table in the 10th place with 15 points after 11 matches. Heading into this game they managed to end their three game winless run with a 2-1 triumph against Cagliari in their previous game and they will be expecting the same results in this game.
Both teams have history of scoring in their recent matches, five of Sampdoria’s last six outings have ended with both teams finding the net, and three of Bologna’s last six matches have ended with the same results.
Bologna has an excellent record against Sampdoria in their recent meetings and they have won in five consecutive matches. However, in the Serie A campaign, both teams have been inconsistent that we can’t even tell who the favorites to win in this game. Therefore, we predict a draw with goals from both sides at the end of this fixture.

Since 1996 there have been 33 meetings between these two sides in which Bologna has 12 wins, Sampdoria 11 wins and 10 encounters played out draws.
