Cagliari take on the visitors Verona in the round 30 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, April 1st at Unipol Domus (Cagliari).
Cagliari returned to Serie B at the end of the penultimate season. And in the same summer, Ranieri arrived on the island of Sardinia. It turned out to be a beautiful story: at the twilight of his career, Claudio decided to help the club where he achieved his first significant coaching successes. The reunion has already brought at least a promotion to the top division, although it required going through challenging playoff matches. In Serie A itself, the newcomer took some time to find their rhythm, but at the turn of winter and spring, they managed to secure two draws and two wins, rising above the bottom three. However, after losing 0-1 to Monza, their lead over Frosinone, currently eighteenth, is just two points.

Verona are holding its ground on par with its next opponent. The Mastiffs manage to balance themselves to stay in Serie A. Although last season, with a meager 31 points, they had to defeat Spezia, who had the same tally, to secure their spot. To avoid such a situation in the future, they brought in Baron from Lecce as their coach. He started energetically, but the fight for survival continues nonetheless. The situation improved at the beginning of spring when they consecutively defeated potential rivals, Sassuolo and Lecce. However, there was no chance against Milan; they lost 1-3 at home.
In the last nine head-to-head matches, the Islanders have won only once, and that was in the country's cup. Furthermore, the Mastiffs have earned 10 points in their last four encounters. Under Ranieri's guidance, playing at home makes Cagliari the favorites of the pair. However, considering Verona's form and the history of their encounters, let's bet that the visitors will not lose.
Prediction for the match: Verona not to lose (X2).
