Two sides separated by just one place and one point in the Italian top flight go head to head on Friday night as Cagliari play host to Hellas Verona.
Cagliari sit just two places above the relegation zone and go into Friday's game on a five-match winless run. The Islanders conceded eleven goals in that run, but they continue to impress in the final third this season, having failed to find the back of the net in just two of their last nine games in all competitions.
Hellas Verona meanwhile have failed to win in five of their last six Serie A games. The visitors conceded five unanswered goals against Inter Milan last weekend and will be looking for a response on Friday. However, Paolo Zanetti's men are unlikely to walk away with three points on Friday night as they have one of the worst away records in the Italian top flight right now after all but one of their six away games this season.
Cagliari vs Verona Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
One thing that is stopping Cagliari from becoming a great team at the moment is their defence. The hosts scored at least two goals in each of their last two matches and have found the back of the net in each of their last three outings. All three encounters produced more than two goals.
Hellas Verona are equally struggling defensively right now, with the visitors failing to keep a clean sheet in each of their last ten matches. They conceded two or more goals in eight of those encounters and I don’t think Friday’s game will be different.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Cagliari vs Verona prediction: 2-1

Cagliari team news
Cagliari didn’t register any injuries in the draw with Genoa last weekend, so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Davide Nicola keeps faith in his XI.
Yerry Mina made his tenth appearance for the Islanders in Serie A last time out and the former Everton man will reunite in defence with Sebastiano Luperto.
