With their 4 point advantage in the league table, Cagliari fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Torino.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

These teams have little in common geographically as Torino have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Cagliari form and stats

The story so far in the Serie A for Cagliari at their home stadium (Sardegna Arena) is 5 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Cagliari, their manager W. Zenga and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Cagliari are returning here after visiting SPAL in a Serie A game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Giovanni Simeone scored the goal(s). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Hellas Verona (1-2).

A late climax in the match against SPAL as the winning goal came three minutes into overtime; scored by Giovanni Simeone.

This is expected to be a close game, with Cagliari perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Cagliari as a small favourite), we find four games. Cagliari has won two of these, drawn two and lost zero.

Cagliari are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at Bologna awaits in four days.

A decent goal production from Cagliari in their home games so far, with 25 goals from 13 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 23 goals have been conceded.

Torino form and stats

There's been little loot from Torino's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 13 away games in the Serie A. Torino only have 4 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 1 draw. A depressing four defeats in a row for Torino in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Roma.

Torino go into this game after a win, the home game against Udinese that ended 1-0. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Parma.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Torino playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were one Torino win, two draws and two defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Lazio in just three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Torino have scored 17 goals in 13 league games away. As for defending, Torino rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 23 goals from these away matches.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Torino - Cagliari 1-1 earlier this season. Cagliari-Torino H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Cagliari zero wins, Torino six wins, four draws. six of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
