As coach of Sampdoria, Marco Giampaolo and his blucerchiati have plenty of experience under their belt against Inter and Spalletti. Giampaolo has led his side to two victories and one defeat against the Nerazzurri, while the coach born in 1967, has faced Spalletti 8 times, winning three and losing five but never drawing.
The two Italians go head-to-head again this Sunday, with Sampdoria having licked their wounds from a 4-1 battering at the hands of Walter Zenga’s Crotone, who also held Inter to a draw at the San Siro in an emotional affair. While Inter are looking to build with a victory after their impressive defensive display against Napoli.
Spalletti, however criticised his team heavily after the game and so they’ll need to prove their worth during the rest of the season if they wish to stay, with every game from here to the end of the season being a crucial step to finishing in the top four.
