Monday night’s Serie A clash wraps up the weekend, and the table. SPAL meet Sampdoria in a fight between the current bottom two in the division. Both sides are looking at relegation in the not too distant future, but can either of these two turn things around by securing all three points when they clash this week? Sampdoria are the bottom side in Serie A, while they are worthy of being last based on performances. Samp have been in awful shape so far, while they are heading to SPAL in hope of turning things around. However, there are major problems faced by the visitors even after Claudio Ranieri was brought in to save them.

The hosts are just a place above Sampdoria, but they are aiming to use some solid home form to take them away from danger. The previous two seasons have seen SPAL get away from the relegation zone thanks to a late stretch of form. If they could start that off early this term with a Monday night victory it would ease the stress for their supporters. We think SPAL can get back to winning ways here, especially as they seem to have turned a corner in recent weeks. The hosts nearly took a point at AC Milan in midweek, which came days after they drew at Napoli. SPAL have home victories over Lazio and Parma in their last four games here, while they needed solid results at home to keep them safe last term. Meanwhile, Samp head into this one with five defeats from five away trips. Recent seasons have seen them underperform on the road, they’re without a win in their last nine away league games. Overall this season Samp have lost seven of 10 league games, while they have shipped two goals or more in all but one of their previous 10 trips. With Sampdoria out of form, we think SPAL are the value pick here. The hosts have a solid home record behind them and they have a golden opportunity to boost their position in the table. Given the away side’s losing streak on the road we believe that the hosts are being slightly overlooked, so SPAL to win is our pick for this one.
