More markets for the Coppa Italia game, scheduled for August 17 at 2:45 PM ET.
Cremonese hosts Sampdoria in a Coppa Italia Round of 64 tie at Stadio Giovanni Zini, where the home side holds a slight historical edge with two wins and three draws in the last six meetings. Both clubs enter the 2026-27 Serie B campaign at similar points in the standings with no matches played, making pre-season fitness, squad rotation, and early transfers key variables. Sampdoria brings greater top-flight pedigree and attacking options, while Cremonese benefits from familiarity with the venue and recent defensive organization. Injury reports, starting XI confirmations, and tactical adjustments in the coming weeks will shape implied probabilities across winner, goal line, and handicap markets, as limited head-to-head data from the prior season leaves room for variance in this single-elimination context.
