Cagliari started their season in the Coppa Italia, winning against Entella on penalties. They’ve had a mixed start in Serie A, drawing 1-1 with Fiorentina and losing 1-0 to Napoli.
New head coach Alberto Gallego brings an attacking and high-tempo style, aiming for better ball control and aggressive wing play.
Parma also progressed in the domestic cup, defeating Pescara 2-0. However, they lost their league opener 2-0 to Juventus. They managed to earn their first league point with a 1-1 draw against Atalanta in their following match.
Parma’s new coaching team is focusing on strong defense and counterattacking, but results have been inconsistent.
Cagliari: Caprile, Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Obert, Deiola, Prati, Adopo, Esposito, Folorunsho, Borelli
Parma: Suzuki, Del Prato, Circati, Valenti, Levik, Garcia, Keita, Valeri, Almqvist, Sorensen, Pellegrino
Both teams are likely to play cautiously. One may have to shift to playing on the counter. Prediction: under 2.5 total goals at 1.65 odds.
