Sampdoria v Benevento prediction

What to expect

We expect about 1.0 goals from Sampdoria and 1.2 from Benevento, so Benevento come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.1 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.

Sampdoria come into this on two straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Benevento or Draw. This covers Benevento or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 71 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.47, which works out at about 68 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
