Team News

Cagliari
Empoli
  • Matteo Prati is injured and will be replaced by Gianluca Gaetano in mdifield.
  • No lineup changes are expected from Roberto D'Aversa on Friday.

Prediction

  • Cagliari are coming off a perhaps harsh 4-0 defeat to Napoli as they created some good chances early in the second half while just 1-0 down, but came short of scoring against Alex Meret, who was excellent in goal.
  • The Sardinians will now host Empoli, who held Juventus to a goalless draw last week and are still unbeaten in the league this season.
  • The hosts are yet to win so far, with some bad results due to poor finishing at the moment.
  • On the other hand, Empoli don't have much attacking quality, but are organised and well drilled so far, as their wing backs get involved in the final third.
