Sampdoria recorded their first win over Juventus in their last nine league meetings with a convincing 3-1 victory. Duvan Zapata's second-half header opened the scoring, with goals from
Lucas Torreira and Ferrari sealing the deal. Juve lacked creativity without Paulo Dybala, who was sidelined by Massimiliano Allegri and they suffered as a result.
Gonzalo Higuain found himself with an early chance after the Sampdoria defence parted leaving the Argentine with just Emiliano Viviano to beat - but his effort was skewed wide. In truth, this was the only real chance in the opening minutes as both teams cancelled each other out with good defensive work.
