Cagliari vs Genoa Prediction: Sportpesa Mega Jackpot Predictions

ITALY: SERIE A – ROUND 11

Date: 05 November 2023, Sunday

Kick-off at 20:00 EAT

Venue: Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi (Verona)

Cagliari staged an incredible comeback, winning 4-3 against Frosinone last weekend and becoming the first Serie A (SA) team to win after trailing by three goals at the 70th minute. They followed this with a 2-1 Coppa Italia victory against Udinese, marking their first consecutive competitive wins this season. However, despite these positive results, they begin this round in the relegation zone, raising concerns about an immediate return to Serie B.

Claudio Ranieri’s squad aims to secure back-to-back SA wins for the first time since January 2022. To do so, they’ll have to break a five-game losing streak against Genoa. Despite their losses, they haven’t been outclassed, with four of those defeats ending in a 1-0 scoreline. Given recent form, Cagliari would likely settle for conceding just one goal, especially considering they’ve allowed ten goals in their last three home games.

Genoa, another newly promoted side, sits four points above the relegation zone and comes into this round with consecutive competitive wins. Their 1-0 league victory against Salernitana last weekend was significant in their battle to avoid relegation, as it followed two straight league defeats without scoring. This result puts them in contention to win back-to-back top-flight matches for the first time since February 2021, one of which was against Cagliari.

Their lackluster away performances pose a challenge as they seek consecutive SA wins, having secured only one point in their last four SA away matches (with one draw and three losses). However, with an impressive record of scoring in 18 of their last 19 SA head-to-head matches, Genoa remains hopeful of avoiding another goalless outing on this trip.
