Sampdoria, after eight days of the championship, è penultimate in the standings with 3 points (starting from -2), ahead of only Lecco, which però has played three fewer games. The only success è came right on the debut (2-1 away to Ternana), since then five defeats (including those of the last two games, against Como and Catanzaro) and two draws, against Cremonese and Parma. The fans have particularly objected to the team's home practices, one of only two in the entire cadetteria (along with Lecco itself) not to have yet scored a point between friendly walls.
