Crotone could be relegated if they lose to Sampdoria on Wednesday. Read our reasons for Crotone vs Sampdoria prediction and betting tips.
Serse Cosmi saw the problem clearly when Crotone lost 2-1 to Udinese. ‘We weren’t our usual selves when attacking today. Unfortunately, we were our usual selves when defending.’ Nwankwo Simy’s penalty had temporarily equalized, but Rodrigo De Paul bagged a victorious brace. “We started well, didn’t run many risks, and had a couple of chances with Molina. Then as time wore on, I don’t know what happened, the attitude changed and even physically the team was losing the ball cheaply in transitions,” the coach told the media. “There was a 15-20 minute period where Udinese played entirely in our half and that’s when they scored the goal. We made adjustments in the second half, did well to stay in it, the penalty I thought would boost our enthusiasm and push us on to overturn the game. Instead, De Paul’s second goal came moments later. We had this huge chance with Simy hitting the post and Riviere tap-in cleared off the line, but other than that, I will admit we weren’t our usual selves when attacking today. Unfortunately, we were our usual selves when defending.”
Crotone is practically doomed to relegation at this point, but Cosmi’s future is still up in the air, as the team certainly improved since he took over from Giovanni Stroppa. “I haven’t been working at Crotone long, but I think they still understood I am proud to have been called to a Serie A club after such a long time and will always be grateful. I don’t care if I came here because someone else turned it down. I am curious, I like the club and I ask for nothing. On the one hand, there’s the work that is seen on the pitch, but then there are also the results. If results don’t come, the club has to work out if that’s because the work is insufficient or if it’s because there simply aren’t the resources to do anymore. As the great Carlo Mazzone used to say, coaching is a wonderful profession until the weekend.”
Crotone: Cordaz; Djidji, Golemic, Cuomo; Pereira, Messias, Molina, Rojas, Reca; Riviere, Simy
Claudio Ranieri explained his choices as Sampdoria fought back to beat Verona 3-1 and says he ‘would love to stay’ next season, but there’s no decision yet. The Blucerchiati fielded a surprising starting XI and were 1-0 down at the break, but immediately introduced Keita Balde Diao, Manolo Gabbiadini, and Antonio Candreva, who all contributed to the comeback. “I used the same team that beat Verona earlier this season,” Ranieri assured the media. “Verona was more determined at the beginning and I had to make changes because we were playing into Verona’s hands and not doing what we had prepared during the week.”
Samp climb to 39 points and has practically secured their Serie A safety, moving to within two points of Verona. Nonetheless, his future at the club is far from secure, amid reports of disagreements with President Massimo Ferrero. “We talked today before the game. I won’t tell you what we said, that is our business. I’d like us to get along. I am happy at Sampdoria and would love to stay. Otherwise, I’ll come to Sky as a pundit and take one of your jobs! I think the intention is to continue together, but give us time to talk and work things out.”
Sampdoria: Audero; Bereszynski, Tonelli, Colley, Augello; Jankto, Thorsby, Silva, Candreva; Balde, Gabbiadini

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
