Prediction: 2-1
Cagliari
Stadio Luigi Ferraris will host Thursday’s Serie A game between Sampdoria and Cagliari, the two bottom-table sides. La Samp are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Cagliari. Veteran striker Fabio Quagliarella has lost his place in the starting XI, while both Falcone and Augello have been tested positive for coronavirus.
The likes of Damsgaard and Ekdal are sidelined with injuries, while Askildsen misses out through suspension. The Sardinians, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league fixtures. Since Cagliari are not regarded as good travelers, we are tempted to put our money on the home side. Dalbert is banned for the visitors, while all Walukiewicz, Nandez, Rog, and Strootman miss out through different reasons.
