Cagliari form and stats

Cagliari's struggle is real here at Sardegna Arena with only 12 points collected from 13 Serie A games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-3-7.

The home team returns to Sardegna Arena after being equal after 90 minutes with Sampdoria (placed 10th) on their last time out; the Serie A game ended 2-2. Before that, Cagliari had a home game versus Bologna which ended with a victory 1-0.

The Cagliari fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 13 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 21 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
