Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Cagliari and Parma take on each other at Unipol Domus in what is expected to be an interesting round 3 opener. Cagliari aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Napoli and, no doubt, they will give 100% to record their first win of the process on Saturday afternoon. Leonardo Pavoletti continues to miss out with a knee injury, while fellow forward Zito Luvumbo is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
The Gli Emiliani, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Atalanta. Parma are not regarded as good travellers and given Cagliari’s unlucky defeat in Naples, we are tempted to place our bets on the home side. In their last meeting in Sardinia, Cagliari defeated Parma 2-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Forward Patrick Cutrone is widely expected to sneak into Parma’s starting XI after scoring as a substitute against the Orobici.
Highlighted Team (Cagliari):

Cagliari are a professional football club based in Cagliari, Sardinia. I Rossoblu (The Red and Blues) compete in Italian Serie A and the club’s biggest success came in 1970, when they won the national championship.
Cagliari finished the season in top position in the standings, four points clear of Juventus and it has to be noted that Luigi Riva led Cagliari to their first Serie A trophy.
I Rossoblu welcome their rivals at Stadio Sant’Elia and the capacity of the stadium is 16,000. In the 1993/1994 season Cagliari made it to the UEFA Cup semis, with the team suffering a loss to fellow Italian club Inter in the two-legged tie.
Giuseppe Pancaro helped Cagliari record a 3-2 win over Inter in the first leg, but I Rossoblu were hammered by the Nerazzurri in the second leg (3-0). Palermo are regarded as Cagliari’s main rivals and the two teams square off against each other in the Derby delle Isole.
