Salernitana vs Cagliari Prediction & Match Preview

Stakes will be high on Saturday afternoon at Stadio Arechi as the bottom two Serie A outfits take on each other in Gameweek No 9.

Salernitana have parted ways with Paulo Sousa during the international break after a horrendous start to the season.

Filippo Inzaghi took over and he is about to make his debut at Salernitana’s helm just in this clash against Cagliari.

The hosts have managed just three points in the opening eight rounds and they failed to score more than a single goal in the last six league affairs.

It will be very interesting to see whether the new-manager bounce effect will happen. The opposition is an ideal for something like that because Cagliari are the only worse team than Salernitana after the inaugural eight rounds of the season.

The visitors have claimed just two points this term, scoring no more than three goals in eight outings.

They also shipped at least three goals in each of the last three league games although it is worth noting that Cagliari have faced the likes of AC Milan, Fiorentina, and Roma in the process.

Latest Meetings

Cagliari will rely on a fine tradition in recent games against Salernitana since they are unbeaten in five subsequent clashes in this matchup.

We’ve seen two 1-1 draws in the most recent encounters between these rivals in the 2021/22 Serie A campaign.

Just one of the previous four outings between Salernitana and Cagliari produced three or more goals.

The Verdict

Both Salernitana and Cagliari have been struggling badly for goals since the start of the season and the Under 2.5 goals FT seems by far the most logical betting option at the 1.66 odds.

We also like the hosts for a new-manager bounce as Salernitana’s win is priced up at the attractive 2.45 odds.
