Cagliari form and stats
Three Serie A home games done for Cagliari, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Cagliari, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
Stress levels are on the rise for Cagliari's attacking players as they have now played 208 minutes without scoring in a league game. K. Balde was their last goal scorer.
No payout for Cagliari in their previous match, an away game at Napoli that ended in defeat 0-2. Goalkeeper Alessio Cragno got the top rating on the team in that game; 7.12 out of ten. Cragno stopped the opponent with five saves.
Preceding that match was the home game against Empoli that was lost 0-2.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Cagliari matches with similar probabilities have ended with zero wins, one draw and one defeat (from two games).
Cagliari are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. Cagliari are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (7 from 3 played).
Venezia form and stats
Playing away, Venezia have won 1 game, drawn 0 and suffered 3 defeats in the Serie A this season.
Venezia played 1-1 against Torino in their previous match. The draw against Torino came from a losing position. The Venezia manager P. Zanetti brought on Mattia Aramu as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level. Defender Michael Svoboda was the best team player with a rating of 7.12. Svoboda won 6 of 12 duels.
Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Milan's place.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Venezia playing away, we found five games. Results were two away wins, two draws and one home win.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Venezia's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 4 matches. Venezia have conceded 8 goals in these games.
