Perugia take on the visitors Cagliari in the round 36 match of Serie B. The match will be played on Friday, April 5th at Stadio Renato Curi (Perugia).
Perugia have fallen into a battle for survival in the division. The "Griffins" used to play decent football, but in this century they have had problems both on the field and off, including having to weather bankruptcy, and it was only in 2021 that they managed to climb up to Serie B. Moreover, last year they finished in 8th position. But now the team looks much weaker. In fact, they are struggling to avoid dropping down to the country's third division. In April, they suffered three consecutive defeats, and it was only against Cosenza that they managed to secure a goalless draw, while in the last round they played 1-1 against SPAL.

Cagliari are performing worse than expected. The "Islanders" have played in Serie A in recent years, but last season was a very weak one, so even the presence of clearly mediocre opponents like Salernitana could not save them from relegation. Obviously, this season, at the level of Serie B, the goal was simply to climb back up, and in "one fell swoop". However, it has become clear that they will definitely not have a direct "ticket" to Calcio. And there is a risk of losing even the chance of a playoff. Lapadula and his team drew three times in a row in April, and even lost to Parma. Only against Ternana did they manage to secure a 2-1 win on their own field.
In 2022, the clubs played against each other for the first time after a 6-year break. And in both games, both in the cup and in Serie B, Cagliari won 3-2. The guests look good against such hosts. Let's take a risk and bet on them to win, but with a "0" handicap.
Prediction for the match: Cagliari to win.
