Sampdoria Draw no Bet
Sampdoria and Cremonese occupy the bottom two places in Serie A, though both sides’ chances of mounting a late survival bid seem incredibly thin. Nevertheless, La Samp will see Saturday’s fixture as a big opportunity to earn what would be just their fourth victory of the campaign. Cremonese have won only once all season long and having lost a smidgen over 60% of their league fixtures so far, they are worth opposing again. However, a measure of insurance is advised in our first Sampdoria vs Cremonese prediction and we recommend a stake on the hosts in the draw no bet market.
Both Teams to Score
We close our football betting tips today with a plunge into the goal markets and bettors are advised to consider a wager on both teams to score on Saturday. Cremonese have found victories nigh on impossible to secure this term, though they have traded goals with their hosts in four of their last five away assignments and in nine of their last 12 Serie A fixtures on the road overall. That record gives us plenty to go on and backing BTTS could prove a savvy move again this weekend.
