Interestingly, Cagliari have kept clean sheets in two of their last three matches, including a goalless draw against Racing Santander and a 1-0 victory over Saint Etienne.

It's worth noting that 67% of Cagliari's recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards lower-scoring affairs.
