Sampdoria
Juve Stabia
Sampdoria took a shock lead right at the stroke of half-time through Gennaro Tutino, capitalizing on a rare moment of quality despite being second-best for long stretches. Juve Stabia's dominance was clear in the numbers - 62% possession, 407 passes at 88% accuracy, and five corners to Sampdoria's zero - but they struggled to convert that control into clear chances in the first half. The visitors' patience paid off after the break, with Marco Bellich heading home a corner in the 73rd minute before substitute Nardo Di Antonio struck the winner just nine minutes later. Sampdoria will rue their inability to see out a lead built almost against the run of play, while Juve Stabia's second-half surge - four key moments compared to just two before the break - showed the character of a side capable of grinding out results even when not clinical in front of goal early on.
