Cagliari - Sassuolo predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Cagliari on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

Things are looking problematic for the visiting side. They are going up against a stronger team which also has a home pitch advantage. Victory is still within reach – they’ll just have to work harder than usual to get it.

,It all seemed lost for Cagliari at the half-time break of their previous away game. Their opponents Hellas Verona were in the lead and were expected to win – but Cagliari managed to equalize against all odds and walk away with a point in a 2:2 stalemate.

Sassuolo’s latest Serie A performance against Roma can’t be called bad, all things considered. Although Sassuolo were the home team, their opponents were much stronger and took home a narrow 0:1 win after taking the lead in the first half.

Sassuolo’s recent matches have been relatively uneventful. The previous two, for instance, ended with less than 2 goals at the final whistle.

Sitting 14th in the league standings, Cagliari are 5 points behind a Europa League qualification spot. The standings will be prone to change, though, considering the season is still in its early stages.

While Sassuolo enter round 9 in the upper half of the table, they’ll definitely want to climb up. There’s plenty of time left in the season to do so, though matchups like Cagliari won’t make their lives any easier.

This Thursday, both teams will be at full strength and able to give it their all.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 3.17 with Pncl, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
