Carrarese – Sampdoria

Carrarese host Sampdoria at the Stadio dei Marmi with both sides desperate for points. Sitting 14th with seven points from two wins, one draw and four losses, the hosts have a marginally positive goal difference (‑1) and will be looking to build on their modest resurgence. Sampdoria, languishing at the bottom in 20th place, have only four points after one win, one draw and five defeats, and their -8 goal difference underscores the urgency of a turnaround. The clash pits a side that has managed to stay within striking distance of safety against a team fighting to escape the relegation zone, making the encounter a pivotal test for both campaigns. A positive result for either side could dramatically reshape the lower half of the table as the season approaches its climax.
