Looking back further into their history reveals that Verona has had the upper hand against Cagliari in recent years, winning three out of their last five meetings.
When it comes to goal-scoring trends in matches between these sides, there seems to be an inclination towards low-scoring affairs rather than high-scoring ones. Only one game from their previous five encounters saw more than three goals being scored.
Team Form: Cagliari
Cagliari’s recent form has been inconsistent across various competitions and home fixtures alike. They have won only one out of their last six matches while losing three and drawing two others during that period.
In terms of league standings, Cagliari currently finds themselves positioned at number sixteen with thirty-six points after playing thirty-eight games so far this season in Serie A competition.
Their most recent match was against Genoa which ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw where both teams showcased attacking prowess throughout the ninety minutes but ultimately failed to secure all three points due to defensive lapses late on.
Team Form: Verona
Verona’s away performances have not been up to par recently as they have lost five out of their last six matches on the road. This poor run has contributed to their current position in thirteenth place with thirty-eight points after playing a total of thirty-eight games.
Their most recent match was against Inter, where they suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat at home. Verona struggled to contain Inter’s attacking prowess and were unable to find any breakthroughs themselves.
Key Players
For Cagliari, Leonardo Pavoletti has been one of their standout performers this season. The striker has scored four goals and provided one assist in twenty appearances so far. His ability to hold up play and create scoring opportunities for his teammates makes him a key player for Cagliari.
On the other hand, Darko Lazović is an influential figure for Verona in midfield. He has three goals and two assists from thirty-three appearances this season. Lazović’s creativity and vision make him a vital cog in Verona’s attacking setup.
Statistical Insights
Looking at recent results, both teams have struggled defensively as evidenced by the number of goals conceded – Cagliari conceding thirteen goals while only scoring nine across their last six matches; whereas Verona have let in twenty goals while managing just five during that same period.
Furthermore, when it comes to away performances specifically, Verona’s defensive frailties are even more apparent having conceded twenty-five times over nineteen away fixtures this season alone.
Prediction: Cagliari 1 – 3 Verona
Based on the analysis above, it seems likely that Verona will come out victorious in this encounter due to their superior form compared to Cagliari recently. With strong offensive contributions from players like Darko Lazović combined with Cagliari’s defensive vulnerabilities shown throughout the season thus far, we predict a final scoreline favoring Verona with a 3-1 victory.
