WOMEN, AC MILAN v SAMPDORIA: MATCH PREVIEW

We return home, in front of our fans, to keep on growing and moving forward. AC Milan v Sampdoria is the sixth matchday of the Women's Serie A season, and in the only match of the month at PUMA House of Football, the Rossonere will try to achieve their third consecutive win. A win that would put us in a great position before the clash away at Roma, but it's better to think one game at a time. We prepare for this game with our own Match Preview.

LATEST FROM PUMA HOUSE OF FOOTBALL The points gained against Inter, Lazio and Napoli have raised the moral and confidence in Coach Bakker's group, also because the results are a natural consequence of increasingly good performances. Many of the players, who are expected to confirm their places in the sixth game of the season, from Laura Giuliani always a key player between the sticks to the match winner away in Campania - Chanté Dompig - who tends to play well against the blucerchiate: the Dutch forward has been involved in five goals in her career against Sampdoria.

Coach Bakker had this to say before the match: "We have embarked on a growth path that is bringing us satisfaction, even in terms of results. This week, we worked hard, and I am confident".

LATEST FROM SAMPDORIA The Doriane arrives in Milan off the back of a difficult start - two draws and three defeats - but are ready to stop the rot. The losses have all come against top teams in the league (Inter, Fiorentina and Juventus) but even in the last game against the league leading Bianconere, Sampdoria went toe to toe and didn't look out of place. There is no one suspended for Davide Corti's side, who in recent seasons has coached our Primavera and even the first team, and is an ex Rossonero from back in the day like Nora Heroum and Linda Tucceri Cimini.
