The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Lazio take on Cagliari on Saturday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will want to win this game.

Cagliari are in 17th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best so far. The home side edged Torino to a crucial 2-1 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.

Lazio, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table at the moment and have overcome their slump this season. The Biancocelesti suffered a 2-1 defeat against Napoli in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.

Cagliari vs Lazio Prediction

Lazio have struggled to hit their peak under Maurizio Sarri this season and will need to prove a point this week. The Biancocelesti have excellent players in their ranks and will need to justify their potential in the coming months.

Cagliari have also failed to meet expectations so far and will need to work hard to stay away from the relegation zone. Lazio are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.

Prediction: Cagliari 0-2 Lazio
