⭐ Editor's Pick
According to the bookmakers, Cagliari are considered clear favourites for the upcoming match. However, Arezzo should by no means be underestimated, especially given how the team looked against Serie A sides in friendly matches. The visitors will surely try to stay compact defensively and will look for their chances on the counter-attack, so Cagliari should not have an easy ride. Therefore, our main bet is Arezzo to win with a handicap (+1.5). Incidentally, the club had avoided defeat by a margin of more than one goal in 49 of their last 50 matches. The expected score is 1:0.
