Sudtirol - Sampdoria
Last updated: Today, at Sudtirol host Sampdoria at Stadio M. Druso in Serie B
Saturday, 24 October 2026, marks a pivotal Serie B matchday 8 encounter at Stadio M. Druso as Sudtirol welcome Sampdoria. The hosts arrive looking to steady their progress after a difficult 3-0 defeat against Juve Stabia last time out, a result that interrupted a run of competitive fixtures. With Vasco Lopes suspended and Bjarki Steinn Bjarkason sidelined, the expected XI led by Alessandro Plizzari will need to find the defensive stability that secured a clean sheet against Ascoli Calcio earlier in October.
Sampdoria face their own challenges, entering the contest following a frustrating 1-2 home loss to S.S. Arezzo. Their recent form has been testing, marked by a heavy defeat to Avellino, and they will be without the injured Danel Sinani for this trip. The expected starting lineup, featuring Peter Vindahl Jensen in goal and Tobias Lauritsen up front, must overcome a challenging away record to find momentum in the league standings.
