Coppa Italia picks for Torino vs. Sampdoria

Before tuning into Thursday’s match, you need to see the Sampdoria vs. Torino picks from sports gambling expert John Eimer. Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge about leagues and players most people don’t know exist, including most oddsmakers. He understands that oddsmakers don’t focus on obscure leagues, so Jon has become obsessed with learning everything possible about smaller leagues. The Indiana-based handicapper compiled a winning record of 260-133-1 with over 90 units of profit for his community on various platforms over a recent two-month stretch.

For Torino vs. Sampdoria, Eimer is backing more than 2.5 goals will be scored at -120 odds. These two last played in late October in which 2.5 total goals were eclipsed, thanks solely to Torino. The side won that matchup 3-0 as three of the last four meetings between these clubs has gone over 2.5 goals.

Meanwhile, Sampdoria will be out for revenge and it possesses the firepower to do so. The team’s home games have been shootout affairs in Serie A this season as there have been 33 goals scored across nine matches. That’s an average of 3.7 combined goals per match and Sampdoria has seen eight straight home games have at least three total goals scored.

“Sampdoria league matches have had over 2.5 goals in their last four games straight and have more than 2.5 goals in a staggering 13 out of their most recent 14 matches,” Eimer told SportsLine. “They are often able to find the back of the net more than once but do allow goals as well in the process.”
