Samp land in Serbia ahead of Europa League return leg against Vojvodina

Sampdoria have arrived in Novi Sad 24 hours before their Europa League match against Vojvodina tomorrow night.

The squad touched down at Nikola Tesla airport in Belgrade this morning and made their way to Novi Sad by coach. A good hour’s drive later, the Blucerchiati reached their hotel and settled into their rooms for a spot of rest before their final training session this evening.

The team will be at Stadion Karađorđe to run through their final preparations at 20:00, before which Walter Zenga is due to speak to journalists at a media conference.

Tomorrow’s third qualifying round second leg, when the Blucerchiati face the mammoth task of overturning a 0-4 first-leg deficit, kicks off at 21:00.
