Cagliari vs Atalanta Match Preview And Prediction
Cagliari vs Atalanta: Atalanta takes on Cagliari in Matchday No. 31 on Sunday afternoon at Unipol Domus. In their respective matches, both teams are desperate for points. Atalanta is in sixth place, seven points behind Bologna in fourth place, and Cagliari is only two points above the relegation zone.
In their last two league matches against Verona and Monza, Cagliari managed just one point while scoring once. Counting six victories in their previous seven encounters with Cagliari, Atalanta was jubilant. In five of Cagliari’s previous six league games, the team finished with fewer than three goals.
Cagliari has fluctuated in their play since the start of the year. They’re having a bad run of form right now. The Rossoblu’s two previous league games against Verona and Monza yielded just one point each. In the process, they have only managed one goal.
In the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-finals, Atalanta lost 0-1 against Fiorentina on Wednesday night, ending their four-game winning streak. Four days had passed since the team’s thrilling 3-0 triumph at Napoli on the road in the previous round of Serie A.
Cagliari vs Atalanta: Betting Analysis
In previous years, Atlanta has dominated this meeting. They have defeated the Rossoblu six times out of the previous seven meetings. In September of last year, Atalanta defeated Cagliari 2-0 in their season-opening match in Bergamo.
Only seven of Cagliari’s past 21 home games against La Dea have ended in defeat.
Given the strength of Atalanta’s squad, it is difficult to resist placing an away victory wager at 1.72 odds. Last Saturday, La Dea defeated Napoli 3-0 to seal the victory. Though they still have a game in hand, they are seven points behind Bologna in fourth place, thus theoretically they are only behind by four points.
We don’t think La Dea will concede points against teams like Cagliari when Champions League football is at stake. Lastly, Atalanta will enter tonight having defeated the Rossoblu six times in their previous seven meetings head-to-head.
Goals have been hard to come by for Cagliari in recent weeks. Their primary priority has been defense. So far in five of their six league games, they had scored fewer than three goals.
Atalanta enters this match fresh off a 0-1 loss to Fiorentina in their Coppa Italia match midweek. In the first half of the season, we did not witness three goals or more in the rematch between these two bitter rivals. The Under 2.5 goals selection is definitely one to support at 2.05 odds.
