Cagliari welcome the visitors Atalanta in the Coppa Italia – Round 21. The match will be held on Monday, January 14th, at the Sardegna Arena (Cagliari).
Cagliari featured a bad end of the year. In the 4 latest matches, they lost thrice and managed to win only Genoa at home, which is an important thing in terms of their coming clash against Atalanta. It is also noteworthy that in the 3 failing matches, the hosts faced Napoli, Lazio, and Udinese, standing out this toppers’ couple (the last-round meeting of 2018).

Atalanta, on the contrary, were on the high in the end of the year. In the one but last fixture, they drawed against the leading Juventus, and in the last one, they smashed Sassuolo, 6:2. Still, there are certain doubts as far as their win in the coming head-to-head is concerned.
It’s been the second championship wherein Atalanta demonstrate great performance – they took points from Juventus (only Genoa managed to do so in this campaign), won Lazio and Internazionale. This is an outstanding record indeed; but all the winning clashes the team featured at home. In outings though, they slipup quite often, take, for example, their defeat to the 14th Genoa, 16th SPAL, and 17th Empoli. As far as Cagliari are concerned, they suffered only 1 home loss, to Napoli. Apart from Napoli, they hosted Milan and Roma. The present-formed Sampdoria and Torino are also plucky. Atalanta’s run is great – they presently claim the Europa League spots at least, if not the Champions League ones. That said, neither the last, nor the present league meeting of the sides (they featured 3 so far) saw Atalanta take a point from Cagliari. Considering all the above, we may try to predict that Cagliari will not concede to Atalanta this time again.
Prediction for the match: Cagliari to win home or Draw.
