AS Roma hosts Cagliari in round 14 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 23rd at Stadio Olimpico (Rome)
Roma will try to make up for Sunday's failure. Gialorossi played against Atalanta in Bergamo. It would seem that everything started as successfully as possible for the guests from the capital. Already in the third minute, Dzeko managed to open the scoring after Mkhitaryan's pass. And the Romans managed to hold this handicap almost an hour of normal time. However, Atalanta, led by Ruslan Malinovsky, stubbornly pushed its agenda. First, Zapata leveled the score with the help of Ilicic, and then Josip assisted Gosens. After that, Paulo Fonseca's charges seemed to give up playing and eventually lost with a 1-4 score. Nevertheless, the team from Rome is fighting for the right to return to the quartet of leaders. Now the Romans need to score three points to leave the chances of going on vacation among Calcio's leaders.

Cagliari hasn't won for a long time. The Islanders cannot win for a month and a half, since November 7th, when they managed to beat Sampdoria with a 2:0 score. Truth be told, they also managed to knock out strong Verona from the cup at the end of autumn. As for Serie A, Cagliari earned only four points in the last six meetings. Sunday's home match against Udinese brought another draw, although the Islanders played against a rather modest opponent. Lykogiannis opened the scoring in the 27th minute, but the Zebras scored an equalizer half an hour later. Nevertheless, you shouldn't underestimate Eusebio di Francesco's team, especially a pair of strikers from South America. Joao Pedro Galeano has already scored six goals and made two assists, and Giovanni Simeone (the son of that same Diego, who already has experience of invitations to the Argentine national team) organized five goals and one assist.
After such a defeat, as Roma experienced in the last round, it must simply breathe fire and brimstone, especially since the opponents are unlikely to fight back. We bet on the victory of the Romans with a -1.5 handicap.
Prediction for the match: AS Roma to win with -1.5 handicap
