Date: Sunday, 24 September 2017
Kick-Off: 11:30 UK,
Venue: Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris (Genoa).
Sampdoria Team Preview
Sampdoria will be happy with their start so far this season, they are in a healthy 5th place on six points with 2nd place only being on seven points will help motivate them to keep going. Two wins in their first games against Empoli and Atalanta gave them a dream start although they weren’t the most convincing they will certainly not be complaining. A tough 3-2 defeat against Roma in which they conceded the winner in the dying seconds will have hurt them as they should have got themselves a point and even could have pushed to hold the win they had. They will be confident going in to this game and there is no reason why they can’t pick up some points.
AC Milan Team Preview
Milan have had a nightmare start to the season so far with only three points after three games they find themselves sitting in the lower half of the table and will not want to fall any further behind. Two defeats in the last two league games against Udinese and Napoli will have left the players low on confidence and probably some anger in the fans. This is a game they need to win before the gap becomes too big too early, they need to stay in the chasing pack but of recent form that looks quite difficult.

Sampdoria vs AC Milan: Prediction
Sampdoria will be quite disappointed to have failed to earn all three points against Verona, but the Blucheriati have sold off quite a few key players, including Czech youngster Patrik Schick. Although they’re unbeaten so far and managed to see off Fiorentina, Milan should be able to edge this one.
