Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Spezia vs Cagliari
It hasn’t been a fine few weeks for Thiago Motta and Spezia as they haven’t won a league game in five rounds. In fact, in December, Spezia beat Napoli and then AC Milan in January but couldn’t maintain that form and have now lost four in a row. This run is the Little Eagles’ worst of the season.
As a result, Thiago Motta finds his team just four points above the relegation zone which should be alarming for his players. However, in their last match against Juventus, Spezia played very well and had four clear-cut chances that would change the course of the game.
Obviously, scoring is the main issue for Motta’s attackers as they netted twice in the last four outings. And it shows in their overall scoring average which is one goal per game.
Cagliari’s five-match undefeated run that took them off the relegation zone got halted by Lazio in the last round. In fact, it was the Islanders’ worst defeat of the year 2022 and their first at home since last December.
Walter Mazzarri saw his team collect nine points from a possible 15 and reach the 17th spot. However, Cagliari are not safe yet and they need to fight for their survival in every match. Clearly, it will be difficult as the Islanders will travel to the bottom three clubs and host the top-three clubs.
Spezia vs Cagliari Prediction
This is definitely a crunch game for both teams as they enter the final ten rounds of the season. Any false step can have terrible consequences thus Motta’s and Mazzrri’s main aim is not to lose points. As a result, we think it will be a low scoring game and will combine it with a home win or draw.
Safe Bet
If we look at both teams’ current form, surely Cagliari despite their latest defeat are in better shape having lost just once in six games. Hence, with odds of 1.53 at Vbet, we think backing the double chance of a draw or a Cagliari win might be a safe bet.
Quick Rich
The statistics are showing a 26% chance of a draw between Spezia and Cagliari. Besides that, this is a very crucial game for both teams, and they can’t afford to lose any points. Consequently, with odds of 3.30 at Vbet, we suggest backing a draw here can return a quick profit.
Spezia vs Cagliari First Goalscorer
Daniele Verde had 24 appearances for Spezia in Serie A this season and scored five goals. Moreover, the 25-year-old winger had three assists and is an essential player for Thiago Motta. We predict Spezia will be on the offensive and Verde will open the scoring.
