Cagliari vs Lazio Prediction

Cagliari come into this one on the back of a 2-0 loss to Torino at Stadio Grande Torino in their most recent outing last weekend due to a brace of goals scored by Scotland international Che Adams. The Sardinians had been unbeaten in their previous three matches as they try to stave off the drop. They now face a Lazio side that, under the management of Marco Baroni, were beaten 1-0 by Braga in the UEFA Europa League in midweek to mean the capital city club have managed just three victories in their last nine matches across all competitions. Given the inconsistent form of the two sides, this could end up being quite an entertaining encounter at the Sardegna Arena in which both teams scoring seems a good bet.
