Fiorentina vs. Cagliari: Preview and betting tips

On Thursday, Fiorentina will play in the Conference Europa League, but before that they have home duties. In the seventh round of the Premier League they are at home to Cagliari, what to expect from the game and what to bet on?

Fiorentina have been symbolised by embarrassing and erratic performances and results so far. In any case, they managed to win the key match by knocking out Rapid Vienna in the rematch of the Europa League Conference play-off. They are currently in a nice sixth place in the table.

Cagliari completes the list of 20 teams, one point behind the last place in the relegation places. The only two draws have been goalless, so the traditional Italian club can’t talk about bad luck yet.

Fiorentina’s key figures

After the departure of some mainstays, even more responsibility is on Nicolás González, the Argentine winger is on five goals and one assist. Veteran midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura has struck three times and assisted twice.

Cagliari’s key figures

The visitors trust African striker Zito Luvumba, the Angolan talent is on two goals and one assist. In addition, Cagliari had two strikers injured, hence the arrival of Andrea Petagna on loan at the end of the transfer window.

Despite the departure of Arthur Cabral, Fiorentina’s attack has been surprisingly good, scoring more than once in five of their last seven games. Moreover, it hasn’t lost any of its three home games since the start of the season, beating Atalanta, for example.

Cagliari, on the other hand, have been extremely struggling in attack so far, two goals scored in six rounds is not enough. It has struck more than once in only one of the last eight games. It is winless away from home since the June barrage for promotion from the second league.

Considering the completely different form of the two offensives, Fiorentina’s good home form and Cagliari’s away woes, I think the Violets will win on home soil and, stay in the Top 6.
