Udinese vs Sampdoria Preview, Prediction and Top Betting Tips: Two Teams Low on Confidence Meet at the Stadio Friuli

EVENT ENDED!

Ahead of the mid-table clash at the Stadio Friuli, Udinese still have an opportunity to finish as high as the tenth position before the season ends, while Sampdoria can jump to ninth should results go their way.

Match Preview

Udinese have won just once in their last five Serie A outings, failing to score a goal in three of those games. Ahead of our Udinese vs Sampdoria preview, there is still a chance Luigi Delneri’s team could finish as low as fifteenth place should they fail to redress their end of season slump.

  • Udinese 2-1 Cagliari
  • Bologna 4-0 Udinese
  • Udinese 1-1 Atalanta
  • Crotone 1-0 Udinese

With just one win from their last eight Serie A games, Sampdoria are currently one of the league’s worst teams in terms of recent form. It should be noted before we make our Udinese vs Sampdoria predictions, however, that they have only failed to score in one of those eight games with hot property Patrick Schick netting four of Sampdoria’s eleven goals on that run.

Sampdoria have conceded seventeen times in their last eight, shipping an average of over two goals per fixture. Marco Giampaolo’s side head to the Stadio Friuli as slight underdogs despite their higher league placing.

  • Sampdoria 1-2 Crotone
  • Torino 1-1 Sampdoria
  • Lazio 7-3 Sampdoria
  • Sampdoria 1-1 Chievo

Udinese vs Sampdoria Prediction and Betting Advice

With these sides sitting side by side in Serie A’s middle section, decisive Udinese vs Sampdoria tips are hard to nail down. That in itself should tell us something, as should the result of their previous encounter this season, where they share the spoils in a drab 0-0 draw. Udinese have the added pressure of knowing several teams could leapfrog them should they drop points and that could be telling.

While sitting on the fence and picking another draw is tempting for this fixture, I’m going to tip Udinese to just about win this one given Sampdoria’s wretched recent form.

Our Tip

Tip: Udinese win/under 2.5 goals: Bet365 5/1
