08/08/22 1668

On Friday night, Sampdoria and Reggina go head-to-head in the first round of the Coppa Italia, as both teams eye a place in the second round of the competition.

Sampdoria

The Blucerchiati have enjoyed a solid unbeaten three-game run in pre-season. Marco Giampaolo’s team has beaten Brescia while also drawing with Parma and Besiktas. The team from Genoa finished last season in mixed form but eventually finished ninth place in the Serie A table.

Sampdoria has an inconsistent recent record in the Coppa Italia, winning three and losing three of their last six games in the competition. Their most recent games have at least provided entertainment value when it comes to goals, as six of the previous seven matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

However, the Blucerchiati have an impressive home record in the competition, winning eight of their last 11 matches on home soil in the Coppa Italia. They have also won the last three meetings with Reggina in all competitions.

Reggina

The visitors enjoyed a poor campaign last season, ending the season in 14th place in Serie B. They finished the season by winning just one of their final seven league matches. Reggina has played just one pre-season friendly match, in which they hammered Serie D team Lamezia Terme 12-0.

The Amaranto has a poor recent record in the Coppa Italia, losing four of their last six matches in the Italian cup competition. That run includes defeats in three of their previous for Coppa games. Reggina’s recent away record in the competition is also a poor one, as they have lost five straight matches in the Coppa Italia on their travels while also conceding at least two goals in each defeat.
