For the first time in four years, Cagliari and Cremonese are set to meet, once again in the Coppa Italia. Who will triumph when IGrigiorossi visits Isolani? Read on for our prediction of the match.

Hosts Cagliari are hoping for a break to their poor start in the season. They will take comfort in the fact this fixture mostly goes in favor of the hosts. That was the case in 2020 when they last faced off.

It was also a Coppa Italia game, which they won 1-0. The hosts are enduring a poor run, after failing to add to their sole season-opening win. Cagliari beat Carrarese 3-1 in the first round of this competition.

After that they went into a slump and are at the foot of the Serie A standings. They are coming from three straight defeats.

Cremonese’s start to the season is more solid and their chase for promotion is well intact. They are third, out of the automatic promotion slots by a point. This positive start will be key to their confidence as they face their topflight opponents.

The head-to-head numbers in this fixture are balanced at 3-3 and Cremonese, backed by their form, will feel they can edge ahead. They didn’t start their campaign in the strongest fashion but have grown in strength.

In the opening Coppa Italia round, they needed penalties to see off Bari before losing the next game to Cosenza. They would only lose one more outing after that, and carry here a three-match unbeaten run. Most recently they beat Catanzaro 2-1.
