Two sides that find themselves toward the wrong end of the Serie A standings as we approach the halfway stage will lock horns on Monday. Cagliari and Sassuolo were both handed defeats in their previous matches, and a return to winning ways could be crucial for both.
Cagliari will be back in front of their home fans on Monday evening, as they look to enhance their chances of remaining in Serie A this term. They come into the upcoming round sitting 19th in the standings after winning just twice in their opening 14 matches this season. They are already having issues scoring goals after netting just 13 times.
A response will be expected by the hosts on Monday, as Cagliari have suffered defeats in two of their last three, and they are without a win since returning to action following the international break. They were somewhat unfortunate in their previous fixture in the league, as they were edged out in Rome by Lazio, eventually losing by a single-goal margin.
Sassuolo’s position in the league standings looks slightly more comfortable, as they come into the round sitting 15th in the standings. They have won four of their first 14 matches this season, and a success on the road on Monday could see them rise in the standings to eleventh.
However, they will also need a positive display this weekend after being beaten in their previous match. That loss was their second in four league outings, and they have won just once over the same period. But, they have shown excellent attacking quality so far this term, meaning that a response is hard to dismiss.
Cagliari landed a 1-0 win in this exact fixture last term. However, that win ended five-game drawing run in this fixture, while seven of the previous nine have also ended in ties. Sassuolo has landed just a single win over that period, with that victory coming back in January 2019.
Sassuolo have shown excellent quality in the final third so far this term, and we fully expect them to find the back of the net on Monday. Therefore, a chance will be taken on Sassuolo edging Cagliari in a low-scoring affair in Serie A.
