Milan perform at a high level so far being 6th in the table. Cagliari can look both up and down from their 13th position.

It's no vacation for neither Milan nor Cagliari as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Cagliari have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

For Cagliari most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.
