Cagliari vs Lecce Prediction & Betting Tips (5 May)

Back in the elite this season, Cagliari is logically fighting not to go down. 14th in Serie A with 3 points ahead of the red zone, the Sardinians are in a good position but nothing is decided yet 4 days before the end of the championship. Last Monday, they carried out a bad operation by losing to Genoa 3-0. This result ended a series of 4 matches without losing. Overall, Cagliari has raised its level of play in recent weeks and has only lost 2 of its last 10 league matches, for 3 wins and 5 draws.

Lecce is currently 13th in Serie A and has a significant lead of 7 points in the red zone. Long threatened by relegation, the team based in Puglia recently distanced itself from the bottom of the ranking by losing only one of its last 6 championship matches, for 3 wins and 2 draws. After valuable successes against poorly ranked Empoli 1-0 and Sassuolo 0-3, Lecce had to be content, at home, with sharing points against Monza last weekend 1-1.

Several elements are missing in Cagliari this weekend. This is the case of important attackers Pavoletti (4 goals in SA) and Viola (5 goals in SA), senior defender Dossena, winger Jankto and replacement midfielder Mancosu, all injured. On the other hand, potentially starting striker Luvumbo (4 goals and 4 assists in SA) is back from suspension.

Arriving at the club in January, attacking midfielder Gaetano (4 goals in 9 SA games) should start in support of Shomurodov (3 goals and 3 assists in SA).
