Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Sardegna Arena will host Sunday’s Serie A game between Cagliari and Fiorentina, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Rossoblu aim to escape the relegation zone, but they will have a mountain to climb on Matchday 23. The Sardinians failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Roma, and it is no surprise the bookies see them as underdogs in Sunday’s clash. Both Carboni and Pavoletti are banned for the match, while all Lovato, Oliva, Bellanova, Grassi, and Aresti have been tested positive for coronavirus.
The Viola, on the other hand, rolled over Genoa 6-0 to keep their Champions League hopes alive. Since Fiorentina top scorer Dusan Vlahovic continues where he left in 2021, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting side. Benassi and Martinez Quarta should be the only absentees in the away side.
