Cagliari vs Roma Prediction: expect a productive encounter

Prediction for the Serie A match which will take place on August 18. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Cagliari

The Sardinians kept their place in Serie A last season under the leadership of the legendary Claudio Ranieri. In the new championship, Cagliari will be managed by Davide Nicola, Italy's top survival specialist, who saved Empoli last season. It is true that Nicola works better when he comes to the team in the course of the season. Whether he will be able to start consistently picking up points with Cagliari from the first rounds is a big question marks.

The team has already played their first match of the season, defeating Carrarese 3:1 at home in the Italian Cup.

Roma

The Giallorossi were led by Daniele De Rossi last season, with whom Roma eventually finished sixth, failing to qualify for the Champions League. The contract with the specialist was extended even before the task was not fulfilled, so in the new season de Rossi will also be in charge of the Roman team.

Among the significant transfers of the off-season, we should note the signing of Girona forward Artem Dovbyk, the top scorer in La Liga, taken from Atletico Madrid. In addition, Roma have added Matthias Sule, who excelled at Frosinone last season.

Expert Betting Tips

Roma under Daniel de Rossi plays vertical football, so there are a lot of goals in their matches. We believe that in the upcoming match in Sardinia there will be goals scored, as Davide Nicola's teams are often active and efficient. In addition, the statistics of head-to-head encounters also points to the high-scoring nature of the match.
