Prediction: 1-0
Empoli
Wednesday’s football game at Sardegna Arena pits together Cagliari and Empoli, the two teams who sit in the danger zone ahead of Matchday 5. The Sardinians are desperate to record their first win of the season, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Empoli. Cagliari showed signs of improvement in a 2-2 draw with Lazio, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered.
Defender Gabriele Zappa is banned for the midweek clash, while all Ceter Valencia, Godin, Ladinetti, Rog, and Strootman are out of contention with injuries. The Gli Azzurri, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 3-0 loss to Sampdoria, and, taking everything into account, they are unlikely to spoil Cagliari’s party at Sardegna Arena. Both Fiamozzi and Tonelli miss out with injuries for the visiting team, while Damiani is a major doubt.
Highlighted Player (Diego Godin):
Diego Godin is considered one of the best defenders in the history of Uruguayan football. The Atletico Madrid centre back played for Cerro and Nacional in the Uruguayan national championship between 2003 and 2007 and in August, 2017 he signed a deal with La Liga side Villarreal.
Godin made 91 league appearances for the Yellow Submarine and on 4 August he made probably the best decision of his career as he signed a contract with Atletico Madrid. The Uruguayan defender won the 2013/2014 La Liga trophy with los Rojiblancos, while making it to the Champions League final on two occasions (2014, 2016). He won the Europa League trophy in the 2011/2012 season with Atletico Madrid as well.
Speaking of his international career, Godin clinched the 2011 Copa America trophy with Uruguay. Despite playing as a centre back, Diego Godin often scores after set pieces and you should have in mind that he scored eight goals for Diego Simeone’s team in the 2013/2014 season (all competitions).
