Last time Cagliari won a game was November 7th when they beat Sampdoria at home. That was 13 rounds ago, and also the last time they have been the better team performing on the pitch according to xG-data. Now they have lost last 6 games,

and the only time they have matched their opponent in xG was vs poor Benevento, who created last night exactly 0.00 of goal expectation!

Has something happended recently that would make us believe in Cagliari success? Not at Cagliari camp, maybe the opponent Sassuolo is not that much strong either, let us have a look:

Last 3 away games are clear losses, but also vs absolute top teams. Against the bottom half teams Sassuolo have been clearly the better side, and vs the bottom-6 their results are even better.

Squad situation does not look too good as Cagliari miss defensive key players from midfield in Rog and Nandez, and there several with a doubt status as well.

At Sassuolo there is also one important absentee as joint top scorer Berardi ( 7 goal) is out, but scoring or creating chances has not been the problem of Sassuolo who have scored at least 3 goals already 5 times this season. The first encounter ended 1-1, it was another match where Sassuolo outplayed their opponent, and it was also at the period in the start of the season when Cagliari collected most of their points.

1-3

卡利亚里上一次赢球是在11月7日主场击败桑普多利亚的时候。那是13回合之前的事了，根据预期数据，这也是他们最后一次在球场上表现得更好。现在他们输掉了过去6场比赛，

最近发生了什么让我们相信卡利亚里会成功的事情吗?不是在卡利亚里，也许对手萨索洛也不是那么强大，让我们看看:

过去的3场客场比赛都是明显的失败，虽然对手是绝对顶尖的球队。对阵积分榜下半区的球队，萨索洛显然是更好的一方，对阵下半区的球队他们的结果甚至更好。

球队的情况看起来不太好，因为卡利亚里缺少中场的关键防守球员罗格和南德斯，还有一些人的情况也不确定。

萨索洛有一个重要的缺阵，因为最佳射手贝拉尔迪(7球)出局了，但是萨索洛依旧能够进球和创造机会，本赛季已经5场比赛至少打进3球。双方第一次相遇以1-1的比分结束，是在赛季初卡利亚里获得大部分积分的时候。

看好萨索洛，比分参考1 - 3
