Sassuolo will host Cagliari in this crucial Serie A relegation battle. Both teams have a strong need for relegation. Sassuolo is currently at the bottom of the table, only three points behind the relegation zone, but due to the inferior goal difference, they need to not only win, but also hope that other relegation rivals do not win. Cagliari, on the other hand, is in 16th place, one point ahead of the relegation zone, but the situation is relatively safer.
Sassuolo's record at home is 5 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses, a win rate of less than 30%, and recent form is poor, with only 2 wins in the last 10 games. Cagliari's performance on the road is even worse, with 1 win, 5 draws and 12 losses, and their away record ranks at the bottom of the league. In the past 10 meetings between the two teams, Sassuolo has 2 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses, with 2 wins and 3 draws at home.
Considering the two teams' current form and historical head-to-head records, Sassuolo's sluggish form may affect the outcome of the match despite their home advantage. Cagliari, despite their poor performance on the road, are in a more favorable relegation situation and may adopt a more conservative strategy. As a result, the match could end in a draw, or Sassuolo could win by a narrow margin.
Combined with the above analysis, the recommended betting direction is Handicap (1.53), Single Draw (3.30), the projected score may be 1-1 or 1-2, the total number of goals is expected to be 2 or 3, and the single recommendation is 2 goals. These recommendations are based on current information and statistics, actual bets should take into account the latest team dynamics and possible variables.
