Cagliari vs Frosinone Predictions

Cagliari head into this fixture on the back of some pretty impressive form with a 2-0 home loss to Juventus the only defeat suffered in their last 5 league outings. They have beaten Fiorentina, Chievo and Spal whilst picking up a solid point away at Torino last time out. This has seen them rise in the table to 12th, with 37 points from their 32 league games. They find themselves 8 points above the relegation zones and a win here and they will fancy themselves to have done enough and be playing Serie A football again next season.

Frosinone have had a poor season and they are all but relegated. They sit on 23 points and are currently 8 points adrift of safety with just 6 points to go, a loss here and they would require a miracle to survive the drop. They head into this game on the back of a 3-1 home defeat to Inter Milan but did have two promising results prior to that with a 1-0 away win at Fiorentina and 3-2 home win vs Parma to give them some hope.

Cagliari have been impressive at home this season winning 7 of their 16 games, drawing 6 and losing just 3. They score 1.25 goals per game at home whilst conceding 1.00 per game. They have one of the league’s highest scorers in their ranks in Leonardo Pavoletti, the Italian forward has notched 12 goals this season surpassing last season’s effort of 11. He has also scored in his last 2 games for Cagliari and also netted for Italy against Lichtenstein in his first start for the National team.

Frosinone have been much better away from home than they have on home soil this season. They have won just 1 in 16 at home however on the road they have won 4 games, drawn 3 and lost 9 of their 16 away outings.They score just 0.81 goals per game, however their defence has been leaky this season letting in 1.62 per game on their travels.

Cagliari are a decent price here for a side who will all but guarantee survival with a victory and we are backing them to win here as our main tip. Cagliari have won 4 of their last 5 league games all by the 2-1 scoreline and we think they will do the same here.
