Cagliari vs Genoa Prediction and Betting Tips | November 5th 2023

Cagliari will host Genoa at the Unipol Domus on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Serie A campaign.

The home side have endured a rather torrid return to the Italian top-flight, although results have begun looking up of late. They picked up a memorable 4-3 comeback victory over fellow newly-promoted side Frosinone last weekend, scoring four times in the final 25 minutes of the game to overturn a three-goal deficit.

Cagliari sit 19th in the league table with six points from 10 games. They are just two points above last-placed Salernitana and will be looking to widen that gap this Sunday.

Genoa have also had their struggles since their return to Serie A this season but remain hopeful of avoiding the drop. They picked up a narrow 1-0 win over Salernitana in their last league outing, following that up with a 2-1 extra-time victory over Reggiana in the Coppa Italia on Wednesday.

The visitors sit 14th in the Serie A standings with 11 points from 10 games. They will be looking to build on their newfound form when they play at the weekend.

Cagliari vs Genoa Prediction

Cagliari are on a run of back-to-back victories after going winless in their nine games prior. Their latest result saw them end a four-game winless run on home turf and they will look to build on that this weekend.

Genoa have also won their last two games after winning just one of their previous seven. They have, however, lost three of their last four away outings and could see defeat here as well.

Prediction: Cagliari 1-0 Genoa
