AC Milan, Recent FormAny AC Milan pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 2-0 away defeat by Spezia. During that encounter they had 59% possession and had 14 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped. At home this season, they have scored in 16 of their 17 home games and notched up 7 clean sheets.
They have been performing well at Stadio San Siro recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
Sampdoria, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against Empoli in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Sampdoria. Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Empoli had 15 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Dejan Stanković will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 3 goals, conceded 12, and picked up a meagre 3 points. They have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 10 games, and so far this season they've failed to score in 20 of their 35 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 9 games.
It was no surpirise that the last time these two teams met AC Milan came out on top, winning the match 1-2.
The i Blucerchiati defence has struggled against Milan in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 6 games.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Milan has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Sampdoria in 7 games.
With only Ismaël Bennacer (Physical discomfort) and Alessandro Florenzi (Physical discomfort) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Stefano Pioli will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Dejan Stanković has a number of injury concerns in his Sampdoria squad to contend with: Emil Audero (Shoulder), Andrea Conti (Ankle), Mehdi Léris (Muscle) and Ignacio Pussetto (Knee)
