MAY 21, 2021 • Associated Press

Lorenzo Tonelli - Unlikely for season finale Tonelli did not practice Friday to do some rehab work on a thigh contusion, Sampdoria informed.

Impact Tonelli was a late scratch for the previous game for the same reason and will likely miss Saturday's match against Sampdoria as well. Omar Colley and Maya Yoshida will likely start in the back Saturday.

MAY 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Adrien Silva - Likely to return versus Parma Silva (knee) has re-joined his teammates in practice Friday, Sampdoria announced.

Impact Silva has completed his recovery from a knee contusion and should at least be a bench option for Saturday's game versus Parma. Sampdoria will be without regular starter Morten Thorsby in the midfield. Valerio Verre and Kristoffer Askildsen would be the alternative options if Silva could not start. He has posted one goal, one assist, ten created chances and 47 tackles in 23 games thus far.

MAY 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Gaston Ramirez - Set to return versus Parma Ramirez (ankle) has been practicing with the rest of the group in the last couple of days, Corriere dello Sport reports.

He finishes his campaign with one goal, 46 crosses and 68 clearances in 31 appearances (29 starts). Alex Ferrari or Mehdi Leris will man the right flank versus Parma.

Udinese 0-1 Sampdoria | Quagliarella From the Spot to Give Sampdoria All 3 Points! | Serie A TIM

MAY 16, 2021 • YOUTUBE

Emil Audero - Stands tall with clean sheet in win Audero made two saves and recorded one clean sheet in the 1-0 win over Udinese on Sunday.

Impact Audero had endured a rather poor run in his prior two performances. He conceded seven goals and made six saves in that span. However, Audero responded well against Udinese en route to his sixth clean sheet of the season and his second in the past four appearances. He has been outstanding all season and his saves per match gives him one of the highest ceilings in the league at his position. He will remain one of the better options as the season concludes.

MAY 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Fabio Quagliarella - Converts from spot off bench Quagliarella scored once, took two shots (two on target) and created one chance in the close 1-0 win against Udinese on Sunday.

Impact Quagliarella returned to the bench after starting in the midweek. The forward however still managed to do enough damage to boost Sampdoria to another win. This was just his 12th goal of the season and the second from the spot. When he starts, Quagliarella is a terrific option and he has one more chance before the conclusion of the season.

Antonio Candreva - Sends seven crosses in loss Sunday Candreva produced two shots (two on target), created two chances, sent seven crosses (one accurate), took three corners and made two tackles (one won) in the 1-0 win against Udines...

Impact Candreva continues to shine along the flank for Sampdoria. The midfielder thrives on the wing where he creates a plethora of opportunities. He also continued to be in charge of set-pieces furthering his floor and upside. He is sitting in a great spot as well to host Parma in the final matchup of the season. Candreva is averaging, 1.58 shots, 1.79 created chances, 8.41 crosses, 3.05 corners and 0.82 tackles per 90 minutes in all competitions this season.

MAY 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Manolo Gabbiadini - Rips four shots in 1-0 loss Gabbiadini took four shots (one on target), created one chance and made one tackle (one won) during the 1-0 win over Udinese on Sunday.

Impact Gabbiadini rebounded with a much better performance after a mediocre outing against Spezia at the midweek. The forward even had a created chance and a tackle. Gabbiadini has struggled for the majority of his career with consistency and good form. He remains a boom-or-bust option and he is only averaging 1.73 shots per game.

MAY 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Morten Thorsby - Makes three tackles in 1-0 win Thorsby took one shot (none on target), created one chance, made three tackles (one won) and received one yellow card in the 1-0 win against Udinese on Sunday, which will cost him...

Impact Thorsby was average in the close win Sunday. The midfielder put together another strong outing in the tackle department and he added a shot as well. He has never shown a knack for the attack, but he continues to put together strong defensive showings and at times gathering stats in bunches. He will likely be replaced by Valerio Verre or Adrien Silva (knee) in Saturday's home game versus Parma.

MAY 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Adrien Silva - Stays out for Udinese game Silva (knee) has resumed practicing, but he has not been called up for Sunday's match against Udinese, Sampdoria informed.

Impact Silva is dealing with a knock, but he has not been able to fully shake it off to return for this game. Valerio Verre saw a rare start in the midfield in the most recent game and will compete with Albin Ekdal, Morten Thorsby and Kristoffer Askildsen to remain in the XI.

MAY 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Gaston Ramirez - Unavailable against Udinese Ramirez will miss Sunday's game versus Udinese due to a left ankle contusion, Sampdoria announced.

Impact Ramirez picked up the ailment in practice and will not be able to play in this round. His playing time has been irregular, so their usual XI is not particularly affected by his absence. Fabio Quagliarella, Balde Keita and Manolo Gabbiadini will be the top options up front for Sampdoria Sunday.

MAY 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Keita Balde - Scores versus Spezia Keita scored one goal on three shots (one on target) and drew one foul in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Spezia.

Impact Keita came off the bench in the second half and found the back of the net minutes later. The striker has now scored twice in the last two appearances, along with producing five shots and two chances created. His playing time, however, is a concern as he has started only twice in the last nine games. He will push to be included in the starting XI Sunday versus Udinese after his strong recent offensive form.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Maya Yoshida - Collects an assist in draw Yoshida registered one assist, took two shots off target, created two chances and made one interception in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Spezia.

Impact Yoshida had a good offensive outing Wednesday as he provided his second assist in 30 appearances this season. The center-back holds little fantasy value outside of racking up defensive stats and being an aerial threat on set piece situations.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Valerio Verre - Scores versus Spezia Verre scored one goal on two shots on target, created one chance and delivered one cross in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Spezia.

Impact Verre had a good offensive outing Wednesday as he found the back of the net in the first half to tie the game. The midfielder has now scored once and provided one assist in his last three appearances. However, his playing time is a concern as he has started twice in the last five games.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Antonio Candreva - Delivers 13 crosses in draw Candreva took two shots off target, created one chance, delivered 13 crosses and drew one foul in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Spezia.

Impact Candreva was not able to find the back of the net Wednesday but he still managed to rack up offensive stats due to his role on set pieces. The midfielder has produced six shots, seven chances created and 32 crosses in the last three appearances. He will try to make it on the scoresheet Sunday versus Udinese.
