  • 6' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both UC Sampdoria and Palermo FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 11' UC Sampdoria is showing some good football. However, UC Sampdoria are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 16' Pietro Beruatto has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 533 appearances.
  • 21' The travelling Palermo FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 22' That looks like a foul for a card for Fabio Depaoli.
  • 27' Supporters expect more eagerness from Valerio Verre, as he is very good at scoring at Stadio Luigi Ferraris with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 32' Palermo FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 37' Rayyan Baniya needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 40' What a strike from Joel Pohjanpalo! The score is 1-1.
  • 45' With 0 assists to his name this season, Bartosz Bereszynski is clearly more than just a goal scorer for UC Sampdoria.
  • 50' UC Sampdoria seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 55' Emil Audero has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 10 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 58' Lorenzo Venuti has so much to prove this time. He replaces Pietro Beruatto on 58 minute.

  • 61' Controversy at the stadium! Ebenezer Akinsanmiro argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 66' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jeremy Le Douaron made 453 appearances and scored 28 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 73' Jeremy Le Douaron is replacing Valerio Verre for the Palermo FC side.
  • 75' Poor challenge from Niccolo Pierozzi. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.

  • 84' The UC Sampdoria manager makes a substitution. Davide Veroli departs to be replaced by Alessandro Riccio.
