Massimo Ficcadenti believes Cagliari can “make the most of this good period of form” to cause an upset at Bologna on Thursday.

The midweek round concludes tomorrow evening at the Stadio Dall’Ara just days after the Sardinians held Inter to a 2-2 draw.

“This is a positive moment for us both in terms of performance and results. We’ve got to continue like this and make the most of this good period of form,” said the Coach.

“I expect a big battle at Bologna, as both sides need points to be sure of safety. We will be playing on a heavy turf, so must also be prepared in terms of an aggressive approach.

“Bologna are experienced and have individuals of great quality like Alessandro Diamanti and Gaston Ramirez. Their defenders are strong and physical.

“Daniele Conti is a crucial player for us, as when he is 100 per cent fit he allows us to develop our attacking play at its best. I still have a few doubts on my line-up.”
