The final game of an extended weekend Serie A schedule involves a crucial game and these Fiorentina vs. Cagliari predictions focus on two teams with very different starts to the season. Fiorentina are flying high in the European places, with Cagliari already down in the relegation battle.
Fiorentina vs. Cagliari odds
1 – Fiorentina to win – 1/2
2 – Fiorentina under 2.5 total goals – 1/2
3 – Total goals scored under 2.5 – 21/20
4 – Both teams not to score – 37/40
5 – Fiorentina to win 2-0 – 6/1
Fiorentina head into this game looking to maintain their overall positive run of form in Serie A action in recent weeks.
The fixture calendar has produced just two home league matches for the club so far this season and they have picked up four points from those games and are unbeaten in Florence. Despite only being based on a small sample, with Fiorentina also unbeaten at home in the Europa Conference League, they are strong favourites to keep up that run at home to Cagliari.
Cagliari are yet to win an away game in 2023-24, with just one point picked up on the road for Claudio Ranieri’s struggling team.
Within their positive home form, Fiorentina’s goal return has been mixed, with five scored in two matches, at a neat average of 2.5 per game.
Both of Fiorentina’s home league ties have featured over 2.5 total goals scored but Cagliari’s one positive has been a relatively stubborn defensive record, as they look to claw themselves back into the running in the weeks ahead.
Cagliari have conceded an average of 0.66 per game away from home and they have not conceded more than two in an individual away tie. That pattern looks set to continue in this game, with Cagliari looking unable to turn the tide at the moment. But Ranieri will not allow them to ship too many goals here.
Victory for Fiorentina will be a boost to keep up their form before a crucial Europa Conference League home game against Ferencvaros in midweek.
