The teams currently sit in 16th and 17th place respectively, with only a three-point gap between them.

Head-to-Head
📊 The recent head-to-head history features just three matches: Cagliari have claimed two victories, while one match ended in a draw.

Head-to-head statistics Cagliari - Cremonese

Cagliari Calcio Team Overview
🔴 Cagliari are navigating a particularly challenging stretch this season. The Islanders are now on an eight-match winless streak, with six of those games ending in defeat. Unsurprisingly, these results have taken a toll on the club's standing in the league table. After 31 rounds, Cagliari have slipped to 16th place with 30 points, and their cushion above the relegation zone has dwindled to a precarious three points.
🔵 In the previous round, the Islanders came close to breaking this unfortunate run. On April 4th, they faced Sassuolo away and delivered an impressive first half-dominating play with a 7:2 shot advantage and an xG of 1.31 compared to Sassuolo's 0.12. They went into halftime leading 1-0. However, after the break, Cagliari completely lost control of the game, conceded twice, and ultimately fell 2-1. Both goals seemed preventable, further intensifying the sense of missed opportunities.

Cremonese Team Overview
⚪ Cremonese can't boast about their recent form either. In the last 17 matches, they have managed just a single victory - an away win against Parma (2-0). This poor run has seen the "Gray-Reds" plummet from mid-table to a point where they briefly found themselves in the relegation zone. The win over the "Crusaders" helped Cremonese climb back up, but their position remains precarious: they sit 17th with 27 points, only ahead of Lecce on tiebreakers.
🔴 In their last outing, the "Gray-Reds" hosted Bologna and fell 1-2 in a match full of twists. They were outplayed in the first half, with just 29% possession, a 2:9 shot deficit, and an xG of 0.07 compared to Bologna’s 0.89, resulting in two goals conceded before halftime. However, after the break, Cremonese emerged as a different side, cutting the deficit and showing much more energy, but ultimately ran out of time for a complete comeback.

Latest news
Cagliari Calcio
📣 Following the 2-1 defeat to Sassuolo, Cagliari's head coach Fabio Pisacane stated, "We deservedly took the lead and could have doubled our advantage. When you create a lot of chances but only score once, things become much more difficult. The most disappointing aspect is that we lacked intensity in the second half."
🚫 The hosts are facing some squad issues: Leonardo Pavoletti is doubtful due to physical discomfort, while Mattia Felici and Riyad Idrissi are both definitely out with cruciate ligament tears, sidelining them for the rest of the season.
Cremonese
📣 Following the 2-1 defeat to Bologna, Cremonese head coach Marco Giampaolo remarked, "The boos from the stands in the first half? The opposition really outplayed us, but after going down 0-2, we responded well. We have our own mistakes, but we must also acknowledge Bologna's merits. I'm pleased with the character the team showed by staying in the game until the end."
🚫 The visitors also face some squad issues: Michele Collocolo is doubtful due to a hamstring injury, and Youssef Maleh will miss the match due to suspension. Additionally, Antonio Sanabria and Jamie Vardy are sidelined with muscle injuries.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
As previously noted, Cagliari have been unable to secure a win in their last eight matches. During this period, the team has not managed to score more than one goal in any game, even against relatively weaker opponents like Pisa (1-3), Parma (1-1), and Lecce (0-2). Given these circumstances, betting on Cagliari to score under 1.5 goals seems like a reasonable option.
🚩 Corner Prediction
This season, Cagliari have not been frequent visitors to the corner flag, averaging around 3.4 corners per match. Only Cremonese have a worse record in Serie A with 3.2. It's also worth noting that the total under 9.5 corners has hit in Cagliari's last six matches. Considering these stats, the upcoming fixture is unlikely to be an exception.
Editor's Prediction
According to bookmakers, Cagliari are considered favorites in this matchup, but betting on teams that have struggled to secure victories lately is highly risky. Moreover, the upcoming game holds significant stakes for both sides: a loss would not only leave them pointless but also allow a direct rival in the survival battle to gain three points. In such scenarios, teams typically prioritize caution, minimize unnecessary risks, and focus on defensive solidity. Therefore, our main prediction is under 2.5 goals. We wouldn't be surprised if the match ends in a goalless draw at 0-0.
