Cagliari – AC Milan : Preview & Prediction
Cagliari, currently 17th in Serie A, will face a complicated end to the season with the reception of the three big teams, AC Milan, Juventus and Inter Milan in the last nine games of the season. The 3-point lead over the relegation zone is uncertain and the latest results show the current difficulties of Mazzarri’s men. Pavoletti’s five-goal haul in the last two games against Lazio Rome (0-3) at home and Spezia (2-0) on 12 March shows how difficult it is for the club. Cagliari have taken just five points from a possible 15 in the last five games and the visit of the leaders could make it even more difficult for them to maintain their position. AC Milan, who won the first leg easily (4-1), arrive in Cagliari in a strong position. The Rossoneri have not lost for two months and are aiming for a 10th game without defeat this weekend. Olivier Giroud’s team-mates (8 goals) have won their last two league games at Napoli (1-0) and against Empoli (1-0) and have not conceded a goal in three games. This Milan will be difficult to move for Cagliari.
AC Milan are leaders in Serie A with 9 games remaining.
Cagliari, in 17th place, are just 3 points clear of the relegation zone.
Cagliari are struggling with two defeats in their last two games.
The Rossoneri are unbeaten in 9 games (5 wins and 4 draws), including Serie A and the Italian Cup.
Cagliari’s last win came on 28 May 2017 (2-1).
AC Milan, in the race for the title, have a favourable schedule with trips to Cagliari and Torino and the receptions of Bologna and Genoa in the next 4 games. A first win at Cagliari would be the ideal start to the final sprint for the determined Rossoneri.
