Cagliari vs Roma Predictions

Roma are good favourites to win away at Cagliari on Sunday. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have won the last six Serie A away games in which they were odds-on and should get another victory at the Unipol Domus.

Roma are 11 places above Cagliari in the table, with 16 points separating the two teams. The hosts sit 15th having won two, drawn five and lost six of their 13 games this season, while Roma are fourth with nine wins and four defeats.

Cagliari are in a slump, without a win in nine Serie A games.

The visitors have hit their stride. Roma have won four of their last six Serie A matches and have been winners on seven of their last nine away days. They have lost just one of their last ten visits to Cagliari.

The hosts look frail defensively, with Cagliari failing to keep a clean sheet in four consecutive home games. They have conceded ten goals at home this season in the league – an average of 1.67 goals per game from six matches.

Roma can edge this, with a 1-0 correct score in favour of the visitors looking like a decent bet. No Serie A team’s games have finished with fewer than three goals more times than Roma’s this season (ten), and six of their nine wins were by a single goal.
