Cagliari vs Lazio Live Stats & Betting Odds
Cagliari Prediction – Can Cagliari close gap on Lazio?
4 points separate Monday night’s hosts, Cagliari, and their opponents, Lazio, prior to this upcoming and important clash near the top of the Serie A table with Cagliari looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Italian top flight to an incredible 14 matches.
Without doubt, Cagliari have been the stand-out surprise package in Serie A so far this season and this decent 13-match run without defeat has been deserved and has also helped transform the hosts from bottom half dwellers to serious contenders for a top four finish come the end of the season.
An overall home record of 5-1-2 19/12 includes having won their last 4 home matches on the trot at their Sardegna Arena with wins over SPAL, Bologna, Fiorentina and Sampdoria, all of whom occupy positions in the bottom half of Serie A.
So, whilst this recent winning streak is impressive, Cagliari are sure to be tested by the visit of 3rd placed Lazio this Monday evening so perhaps the goals markets are the best option – 6 of Cagliari’s 8 home matches have seen both teams score.
Lazio Prediction – Can Lazio win eight on trot?
Lazio have been another surprise package in this season’s Italian top flight as the visitors have embarked upon an impressive 7-match winning streak which has lifted Simone Inzaghi’s side into 3rd spot and another three points here would see Lazio draw level on points with 2nd placed Juventus, such has been their strength of results recently.
The visitors’ outstanding season to date has been fired by striker and leading goalscorer in Serie A, Immobile (17 goals) as Lazio have simply steamrollered recent opposition, scoring a total of 20 goals and conceding just 6 goals in reply during this devastating winning streak.
The highlight was undoubtedly their 3-1 home win against Juventus last time out, and no doubt they’ll be in confident mood ahead of this Monday night clash against fellow high-fliers, Cagliari, as they seek to record an eighth win on the bounce.
An away record of 4-1-2 12/8 has been improved by winning their last 3 away matches on the trot with victories registered at Fiorentina, AC Milan and Sassuolo, but they too will have a test on their hands against Cagliari – instead, 5 of their 7 away matches have also seen both teams score.
Key-Facts – Cagliari vs Lazio
