Cagliari and Bologna are in a period where the table is still unsettled. The two teams are separated by several points, but this situation makes the game unlike a typical match, because the higher-placed side wants to reinforce the gap, while the chasing side does not want it to widen further. Cagliari lost 0-4 in their latest match, but before that they picked up wins in three of four matches, and throughout the season they have scored 6 and conceded 7 from 7 matches. Bologna, meanwhile, have won only once in seven matches, have conceded 10 goals, and lost 1-3 in their last match. Both teams' attacks are not yet sharp, but Cagliari seem to create slightly more chances based on their average shots on target. The game is likely to be a midfield exchange where both sides are cautious. The first half may not be fully open, but the second half should see more open play as each side needs a goal. The match tends to end closely contested and not far apart, which is a path where Cagliari can stay in the game throughout.
