Saturday 30th April 2016 – Kickoff: 1500hrs
Football – Italy – Serie B Betting Tips
Cagliari can go a long way towards gaining automatic promotion from Serie B if they manage to take all three points in this afternoon’s clash against struggling Livorno at their Stadio Sant’Elia with just three league matches remaining of the season after today’s game.
Cagliari are unbeaten in their last three league matches which includes a resounding 6-0 home win over Brescia along with back-to-back stalemates with Como and Virtus Lanciano, while their form on home turf seems to have been revived after three straight defeats a few weeks ago.
Cagliari’s home record stands at a solid 14-2-3 41/15 and scoring goals in front of their home crowd has been their strong point this season having failed to score just twice all season. This is not surprising as they possess a deadly strike quartet of Farias (13 goals) along with Melchiorri, Sau and Giannetti (8 goals apiece) up front.
Visitors Livorno currently occupy second from bottom position in the Italian second tier following a poor run of results which has seen the visitors lose six of their last seven overall, and they are up against it again this afternoon at Cagliari.
As well as that, Livorno have lost their last seven away matches on the trot, conceding a total of 14 goals and scoring just 3 in reply during this dismal sequence of performances, amidst an overall away record of 3-1-15 15/35.
In addition, Livorno have failed to score on 9 occasions out of their 19 away matches so far this season, and relegation looks a real possibility now for them.
