Prediction: 1-2
Atalanta Bergamo
Sardegna Arena will host Monday’s football game between Cagliari and Atalanta. Cagliari kicked off their Italian Cup campaign with a 2-1 win over Palermo and they defeated Chievo Verona on the road in the last 32 of the competition. The Rossoblu aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, but beating the high-flying Orobici is easier said than done. Atalanta rolled over Sassuolo 6-2 on the road in their last league match, so it is no surprise they are considered favourites to win the Sardegna Arena clash. The Orobici are likely to stick to their attacking style of play against Cagliari and seeing that the hosts do not seem to be on top of their game at the moment, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors. A man to watch in the away team will be Duvan Zapata, who has been scoring goals for fun of late.
