Preview: Sampdoria vs. Juventus

Sampdoria vs. Juventus

Sampdoria will be looking to pick up maximum points at home in their final Serie A game of the season when they host Italian champions Juventus on Saturday.

The Genoa-based outfit are safe from relegation from the Italian top flight this season, having picked up five wins from their last nine matches.

That late surge saw coach Delio Rossi, who replaced Ciro Ferrara at the Marassi in December, earn a new two-year contract and he will be keen to celebrate it with victory over Antonio Conte's side.

On the other hand, Juventus have already wrapped up their second successive Scudetto and will aspire to end their campaign on a high.

However, the Bianconeri will be without midfielder Paul Pogba, who is suspended, while Simone Pepe is out with injury.

Andrea Barzagli, Kwadwoh Asamoah and Nicklas Bendtner are doubtful for Juve's trip to Genoa, while hosts Sampdoria will be without the suspended Renan. Andrea Costa, Jonathan Rossini and Nenad Krsticic are sidelined with injuries.
