Cagliari take on the visitors Sassuolo in the round 15 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, December 11th at Unipol Domus (Cagliari).
Cagliari constantly risks parting with its legend. Islanders played in Serie A for quite a long time. And for a while, it seemed that they would be contenders for European competitions. However, they made a very big bet on veterans, albeit star ones, which resulted in a drop to the country's second division. To return more quickly, they managed to lure Ranieri to Sardinia. It can be said that they returned, but there was a very long pause, spanning several decades. On the other hand, the story turned out to be beautiful: it was with this club that Claudio achieved his first quite loud coaching successes, and then, in fact, fled. The reunion has already brought results: the veteran returned his charges to Serie A. However, in Serie B, as favorites, they only took 5th place and went through a difficult playoff. And in Serie A, after 8 rounds, there were 2 draws, and then they missed the victory over Salernitana, conceding from the penalty spot just before the final whistle. Only against Frosinone did they finally break through and turned 0-3 into 4-3. Then they added a victory over Genoa and a draw with Monza, and the bagels with Juventus and, in numerical disadvantage, with Lazio were expected.

Sassuolo made their Serie A debut exactly 10 years ago. But this original team has already tried itself in the Europa League, although without noticeable success. The club could return there under De Zerbi, but in the end, they finished 8th twice. Roberto then left to transit through Shakhtar Donetsk and end up at Brighton, where he made an impact. His successor, Alessio Dionisi, couldn't keep the team at that level or close to it. On the contrary, it gradually slides down the standings. First, it was 11th place, in the spring it was already 13th. Now, with 15 points after 14 rounds, the Neroverdi are in 15th place, and it's scary to even guess where they would be if they hadn't forcibly held onto the longtime leader, Berardi (7 goals and 3 assists with a total of 21 team goals). On the other hand, the club performs well against strong opponents, as evidenced by the 4-2 win over Juventus and the 2-1 win over Inter.
Black and green had 11 matches without defeat (although they recorded 7 draws). And only in April of last year did the islanders secure a 1-0 victory, still being eliminated. The home team are given a slight advantage. But both clubs will fight for victory, so let's go with a bet on total over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
