Sampdoria vs Benevento, 21 November 2026, Serie B: form, head-to-head and match facts

Sampdoria host Benevento in what promises to be a crucial showdown in the lower half of the table, with the hosts languishing in 18th place on just four points from five games (one win, one draw and three defeats, scoring five and conceding nine). Benevento sit comfortably in 7th, having amassed seven points after five fixtures, recording two victories, a draw and two losses while enjoying a positive goal difference of six‑five. The gap between the two sides is stark: Sampdoria will be desperate to pick up points and climb out of the relegation zone, whereas Benevento will look to consolidate their mid‑table position and keep pressure on the playoff places. Historically the teams have not met often this season, so the encounter could be decisive for both clubs’ ambitions.
