REF’s picks

Backing under 2.5 goals in the Both teams to score market via 'No' aligns well with Sampdoria's limited away output and Avellino's generally cautious approach at home. Both sides have shown difficulties breaking down disciplined defences in recent weeks, making a tight, low-scoring affair the most probable outcome.

1. 1Sampdoria's attack has struggled on the road, failing to establish consistent momentum in the final third.
2. 2Avellino tend to keep matches tight on their own patch, relying on defensive organization rather than high-scoring dominance.
3. 3A lack of clinical finishing from both squads could easily leave one side scoreless or result in a narrow 1-0 scoreline.
