This Juventus side had already made history by winning its first eight games, matching the run set by the Bianconeri in 1930 and 1985, but no Serie A team had ever earned nine consecutive opening victories. Patrick Vieira, Jonathan Zebina, Alessandro Birindelli, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Gianluigi Buffon were all left behind, while Christian Abbiati was out with a knee injury.
Sampdoria had to do without suspended star striker Francesco Flachi, but had Serie A's second top scorer Emiliano Bonazzoli and the knowledge they won on their last trip to Turin.
The Blucerchiati were not frightened by this test and had some promising opportunities early on, Bonazzoli turning Marco Borriello's cross just past the near post.
Juve's first real chance came after 20 minutes, as Alessandro Del Piero crossed in and Adrian Mutu's side-footed volley was just wide of the target.
The Bianconeri thought they'd taken the lead when Francesco Antonioli spilled a Pavel Nedved screamer into the path of David Trezeguet, but the goalkeeper stuck out a foot to push the ball out of danger.
Bonazzoli's header was comfortably held, but it was Juve who opened the scoring after 40 minutes. A corner kick was not cleared effectively and Trezeguet was quick to tap in from two yards, but Sampdoria will be disappointed by their defending.
The visitors fought back and Aimo Diana nodded a corner over the bar, then Bonazzoli's volley scraped the target, but Samp went extremely close to an equaliser moments later when Cristiano Zenoni sprung the offside trap and flicked the ball with the outside of his right foot, but it dribbled inches wide of the far post.
Chimenti then captured a dangerous Diana attempt, but Juventus doubled their lead with a well-worked move. Del Piero, Emerson and Trezeguet combined passes before Adrian Mutu's angled drive finished it off.
Yet it was the woodwork that saved the Turin giants from a Vitali Kutuzov looping header that thumped the crossbar. Samp threatened again with Bonazzoli's header and a volley from the former Parma striker, while Trezeguet had a goal incorrectly disallowed for Nedved's offside position.
Juventus: Chimenti; Zambrotta, Kovac, Cannavaro, Chiellini; Mutu (Balzaretti 85), Emerson, Giannichedda, Nedved; Del Piero (Zalayeta 67), Trezeguet (Camoranesi 81)
Sampdoria: Antonioli; C Zenoni (Gasbarroni 65), Castellini, Pavan, Pisano; Diana, Palombo, Volpi, Tonetto (Dalla Bona 75); Bonazzoli, Borriello (Kutuzov 54)
