Match Analysis

Cremonese's recent form shows a mixed bag of results. They drew against Lazio in their last match, securing a clean sheet, but suffered losses to both Fiorentina and Napoli without scoring. Their defense appears to be a concern, conceding an average of 1.6 goals in the last five games. However, with two clean sheets in their recent outings, they have shown moments of defensive resilience. Their expected goals metrics suggest that they are creating and conceding chances at a fairly balanced rate. Cagliari, on the other hand, managed a win against Torino but struggled against strong sides like Milan and settled for a draw against Pisa. They have scored and conceded an average of 0.8 and 1.4 goals respectively over the last five games, indicating a slight struggle to find the back of the net consistently. The expected goals data aligns with this observation, highlighting challenges in both creating and preventing chances. With only one clean sheet in recent matches, their defense might be tested by Cremonese's attacking efforts.

Final Prediction

Cremonese may have the edge in this encounter, primarily due to their slightly better defensive record and home advantage. A key factor to watch will be how effectively Cremonese can capitalize on Cagliari's defensive vulnerabilities while maintaining their own defensive discipline. Fans can expect a closely contested match with the potential for a low-scoring affair.
