The first Derby della Lanterna in the Italian Cup was in 1966, when Sampdoria won 1-0 thanks to a penalty.
The last time the two sides met in the Cup, Genoa played in Serie B and forced Sampdoria to a replay with a 2-2 draw in the first leg on August 28, 1996. But the Rossoblu eventually beat the Blucerchiati and advanced with a 2-0 triumph in the second leg in October.
