Two of the poorest attacks in the Italian Serie A meet as SPAL host Sampdoria at the Stadio Paolo Mazza. Both teams have found goals hard to come by this season which means Monday’s clash is expected to be a low scoring contest.

SPAL Form

SPAL are coming off a 1-0 defeat to AC Milan last time out in the Serie A. It was another poor performance from the relegation threatened team as they had just two attempts on target and 0.36 expected goals.

Leonardo Semplici’s men have struggled this season having claimed just two wins from their opening 10 Serie A matches. They are particularly poor in attack having found the net only seven times this season and just once in their last three outings.

SPAL News

SPAL are still without striker Federico Di Francesco who remains sidelined with a thigh muscle strain. Andrea Petagna and Sergio Floccari should continue their partnership in attack despite scoring just three goals between them this season.

Sampdoria Form

Sampdoria were held to a 1-1 draw at home by newly promoted Leece in their previous Serie A fixture with Gaston Ramirez netting the equaliser in the first minute of added time. They struggled to find their cutting edge in attack for much of the contest despite having seven attempts on target and 1.64 expected goals.

Claudio Ranieri’s men are bottom of the table and without a win after 10 matches this season, although two of their last three outings have ended in draws. Their major problem has been a lack of goals as they have found the net just six times this term.

Sampdoria News

Sampdoria will be without midfielder Karol Linetty who is currently sidelined with an abductor problem. Fabio Quagliarella should continue in attack despite finding the net just once this season while Gaston Ramirez is likely to start after coming off the bench to score last time out.

SPAL vs Sampdoria Head to Head

Sampdoria have a 4-1 advantage from seven previous matches against SPAL. They claimed a 2-1 victory on their last visit to the Stadio Paolo Mazza.

SPAL vs Sampdoria Match Up

Federico Di Francesco’s injury absence means SPAL are depleted in attack as they continue to struggle for goals. Andrea Petagna has scored just once in his last seven matches while Sergio Floccari is still seeking his first goal of the season.

Fabio Quagliarella has failed to recapture last season’s superb form with the striker scoring just one goal this term. He is often partnered in attack by Manolo Gabbiadini, who has also struggled with two goals to his name this term.
