Cagliari hosts Juventus at the Unipol Domus in Cagliari in a match from the 26th round of the Serie A. Stick with us and these best free football tips for today. Let’s get to work!
Cagliari approach this game from 14th place in the standings. The Rossoblu have 25 points which puts them just five points ahead of the 18th Parma. It means that Cagliari are still not safe – they need more points in order to secure their survival.
Last weekend Davide Nicola’s team won an important point during the visit to Atalanta in Bergamo. The match at the Gewiss Stadium ended with a 0-0 draw. Cagliari showed a disciplined effort in defense and Nicola’s 4-5-1 formation stopped Atalanta from winning this one. Now they have to show something similar against Juventus, too.
Juventus arrive in Cagliari after a heartbreaking elimination from the Champions League. The Bianconeri faced PSV in the competition’s playoffs, but lost the second game in the Netherlands and had to accept the defeat. It was probably Thiago Motta’s biggest failure since he’s coaching Juve – the Italians were favorites to progress to the 1/8-finals.
Now Motta has to use the remaining games to prove that he’s the right man for the Juventus job. The team is in a good shape in the Serie A, winning four of its last five matches in the league. This allowed the Old Lady to climb to 4th place in the standings.
In their last match in the Serie A Juventus faced Inter Milan and won the derby by 1-0. Francisco Conceicao scored the only goal in the match after the break.
That’s the best free football tips for today for the Serie A clash between Cagliari and Juventus. The visiting team has to recover from what happened against PSV in the Champions League. Let’s see if they can do it.
