The visitors are fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead. A win against Empoli on their home field would be a significant achievement, and it is never an easy task.

Having successfully kept their guard up both at the halftime mark and the end of the match, Empoli will be pretty satisfied with their last round’s result (1:1). An away draw as this one will be sure to motivate them this Sunday.

The last time we saw Cagliari in the Serie A they played at home against Monza. They failed to get a clear lead for more than half the game’s runtime, but completely dominated the second half which resulted in the 3:0 score at the end.

Empoli fans at Stadio Carlo Castellani have seen a lot of concessions lately – 8 in the previous three matches. Hopefully, we’ll see some better play from their defenders.

Empoli are still stuck in the relegation zone and the season is quickly running out. They’ll need every point they can get their hands out if they want to stay in the Serie A, so a win this Sunday would be very welcome.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Serie A season, the hosts already recorded a victory over Cagliari. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Betway priced at 1.67 odds.
