A total of twelve league rounds have been played and Sassuolo are 8 points ahead of Cagliari. What will happen?
- Cagliari have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Serie A
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 800 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Sassuolo form and stats
Sassuolo have played 6 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-3 (wins-draws-losses).
Sassuolo are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-3 away versus Udinese. Midfielder Davide Frattesi was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.84 (out of ten) in that game. Frattesi scored one goal, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 31 successful passes (of 37 total).
Before that game, the home loss against Empoli with the scoreline 1-2.Sassuolo are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 6 games. Sassuolo have conceded 6 in these home matches.
Cagliari form and stats
The visitors, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Serie A, are W0-D1-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A. It's looking increasingly bleak for Cagliari who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Sampdoria was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Home advantage was not enough for Cagliari in their previous game, as they lost their Serie A-match, hosting Atalanta, 1-2. Cagliari keeper Alessio Cragno was happy for a super day's work against Atalanta, but even with managing six saves the defeat could not be evaded. Nahitan Nández, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.83. Nández dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Bologna wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Cagliari as they have only managed to score 3 times from 5 away games in the league. Cagliari are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 3 goals in these matches.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - six - one (Sassuolo wins - draws - Cagliari wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.Top Goalscorers
