Cagliari vs AC Milan Betting Odds and Predictions – Serie A

Will the Rossoneri continue their away streak in Sardinia?

AC Milan stumbled two weeks ago in the battle for Scudetto in a 3-1 home defeat against Juventus Turin. Nevertheless, the Rossoneri lead the current Serie A table with three points ahead of city rivals Inter. One reason for this can certainly be seen in the incredible strength of the Lombards away, who scored 22 out of 24 possible points away and scored at least one goal across all seasons since 18 away games in the league.

Accordingly, in the run-up to the match between Cagliari and AC Milan, the odds of the bookmakers are clearly pointing towards the guests, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows below.

This assessment is not really surprising. The Isolani have not won a single one of their last ten competitive games and have recently lost five in a row. In addition, the record against the Rossoneri is anything but rosy. The Rossoblu have won only one of the last 16 home games against Milan. Most recently, they stayed three times in a row against Diavolo without a goal of their own.

 

Cagliari – Statistics & Current Form

Since the 2004/05 season, Cagliari Calcio has played continuously in Serie A with only a one-year break (2015/16) fight the descent.

Even under new coach Eusebio Di Francesco, it looks like nothing will change. The Isolani have only won three of their 17 league games so far and are now 16th. Only one point is the lead on a direct relegation zone.

Ten competitive games in a row without a win

The Rossoblu slipped so deeply into the cellar, especially due to the disappointing performances of the last few weeks. The Sardinians have not won a single one of their last ten competitive games, and they have recently suffered five defeats in a row.

In addition to four bitter bankruptcies in Serie A, the Isolani failed 3-1 at Atalanta Bergamo in Coppa Italia on Thursday. Any hopes of making a comeback in Europe with an overall victory in the cup are therefore also buried for the club, which made it to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup in 1994.

The third weakest defence in Serie A

The entire focus is now on the league, where the negative series must be averted. An important point is undoubtedly the stabilization of the defence, which is the third weakest defence in Serie A with 34 goals conceded from 17 games. But even offensively, the dependency on Joao Pedro, who scored ten of the 23 league goals himself, is too great.

This is one of the reasons why the Rossoblu readjusted on the transfer market and borrowed Radja Nainggolan from Inter for the second time in the winter, who was used in 26 games for the Sardinian team last season. The Isolani still go into this match as underdogs.

Probable lineup of Cagliari:
➤ Cragno – Lykogiannis – Walukiewicz – Godin – Pisacane – Marin – Oliva – Sottil – Nainggolan – Simeone – Pedro

AC Milan – Statistics & current form

The Associazione Calcio Milan are looking at the table with great satisfaction these days. For several years now, investors have been trying to bring the traditional Italian club, which has won the Champions League seven times in addition to 18 national championships, back to the front.

So far, however, none of the investments has been characterized by sustainable success. Despite the expensive squad, the Rossoneri only made it to the Europa League, where they were even banned for violations of financial fair play.

The leader of the table since the fourth matchday

At the moment everything looks like “Il Diavolo” is back on the largest possible international stage with a bang. The Lombards finally got 40 out of 51 possible points from their 17 league games so far, which puts them in the lead.

Three points ahead of city rivals Inter are currently on the books, while the series champions Juventus Turin are seven points behind, but also have a game to catch up on. If it is to work with the 19th Scudetto in the club’s history, the small opponents must continue to be reliably defeated.

Away from the measure of all things in Serie A.

At Cagliari against AC Milan, the tip on the away win in Sardinia is generally under a good star. Not only have the Rossoneri lost only one of their last 16 guest appearances in Serie A here, but they also currently have an incredible away run. They got 22 out of 24 possible points in the distance.

Across the seasons, they have always scored at least one goal in 18 games on foreign pitches. They even won the last three games against Rossoblu to zero. Rafael Leao (yellow card suspension) and Hakan Calhanoglu (COVID-19) are missing in this game. But Zlatan Ibrahimovic could close this gap perfectly. The Swede has played six league games against Cagliari so far. In all games, he has scored so far …

Probable lineup of AC Milan:
➤ Donnarumma – Hernández – Romagnoli – Kjaer – Calabria – Kessié – Tonali – Hauge – Diaz – Castillejo – Ibrahimovic
