Cagliari form and stats

Cagliari have played 10 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-1-4 (wins-draws-losses). Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Cagliari, their manager R. Maran and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

An away draw last time out for Cagliari, facing Inter in a game that ended 1-1. 2-2 away at Brescia before that.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cagliari have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eleven games) they have won 8 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

Cagliari can score goals in their home matches. After 10 league matches they have found the net 20 times. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 16 goals have been conceded.

Parma form and stats

3-3-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Parma in their Serie A matches away. Parma seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

The supporters enjoyed Parma's previous game versus Udinese (placed 14th), a Serie A 2-0 win played at home. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Juventus wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

We have checked recent matches where Parma have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those seven games were W3-D1-L3.

Parma find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 12 goals from 10 away fixtures in the league. Parma have conceded 17 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Parma - Cagliari 1-3 played earlier this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's 4 Cagliari victories, 2 draws and 4 Parma wins. 5 of these games ended with three goals or more, 5 matches with two goals or less.
