Cagliari 1-2 Fiorentina

Current streaks

Recent form

Cagliari

Cagliari's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team struggling to find consistency in Serie A. The Sardinian side have managed just one win in their last six matches, a convincing 3-0 victory over Monza, which stands out as their most impressive result in this period. They've been unable to string together consecutive positive results, alternating between losses and draws in their other fixtures. Defensively, Cagliari have shown some resilience, keeping two clean sheets in their last six games, but they've also conceded three goals in their most recent match against Inter Milan, highlighting their vulnerability against stronger opposition. Their goal-scoring record has been modest, averaging just one goal per game, which partly explains their current 15th position in the league table. With an equal split between matches going over and under 2.5 goals, Cagliari's games have been relatively balanced in terms of scoring output.

Fiorentina

Fiorentina have shown impressive form recently, going unbeaten in their last seven matches across all competitions. The Viola have displayed resilience, securing three wins and three draws in their last six games, with a notable clean sheet victory against Juventus in a high-scoring 3-0 triumph. Their defensive prowess is evident, conceding only 0.83 goals per game in their last six matches and keeping three clean sheets. Fiorentina's attacking capabilities have also been on display, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. The team's ability to avoid defeat has propelled them to 8th position in Serie A, amassing 53 points from 32 games. Their current unbeaten streak and balanced performances in both attack and defence suggest that Fiorentina are in good form as they compete in both domestic and European competitions.

Recent home/away form

Cagliari

Cagliari have shown mixed form at home recently, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six matches at the Sardegna Arena. The Rossoblu have been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring 11 times in these fixtures, including a notable 4-1 victory over Lecce. Their defensive record has been respectable, conceding only six goals across the six games, with one clean sheet against Monza in their most recent home match. Interestingly, two-thirds of these games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting exciting, high-scoring encounters for the home fans. Despite their 15th position in the league, Cagliari have demonstrated resilience at home, with both teams scoring in 67% of these matches, indicating that they rarely fail to find the net on their own turf.

Fiorentina

Fiorentina's recent away form has been a cause for concern, with the Viola experiencing a challenging run of four consecutive losses before showing signs of improvement in their last two outings. Despite their 8th position in the league, their away performances have been lacklustre, conceding 11 goals in their last six matches whilst only managing to score eight. The high-scoring affair against Panathinaikos, which ended 3-2, stands out as a particularly eventful game. Notably, Fiorentina have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these six away matches, with both teams scoring in 83% of the games. The team's tendency towards high-scoring encounters is evident, with 83% of their recent away matches featuring over 2.5 goals. Their most recent outing, a 2-1 victory against Celje in the Europa Conference League, may signal a potential turnaround in their away fortunes.
