Overview

• Lega Nazionale Professionisti B approved Salernitana’s request to move the return leg from June 20 to June 22.
• The decision follows a post–first-leg food poisoning incident that hospitalized 21 Salernitana players plus staff after Sampdoria’s 2-0 win in Genoa.
• Striker Simy, midfielder Soriano and coach Marino were among those treated and have since been discharged.
• Salernitana skipped one of its four scheduled training days as the team recovered ahead of the rescheduled match at Stadio Arechi.
• The return fixture will decide which side stays in Serie B, with Sampdoria entering the match on a two-goal lead.
