Odds, Bets, and Top Predictions for Modena vs Cagliari

Cagliari’s good run of form which saw them go undefeated in their last four matches will give them extra confidence ahead of another important match against a team that is coming off a loss last week.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Modena has one of the most highly efficient stats in Serie B. They have scored 32 goals while allowing the same number. Out of their last ten matches, they have covered BTTS on eight occasions. Cagliari did it six times, but the visiting team also has a slightly moderate goal difference at 27-24. Their first meeting this season ended with a 1-0 Cagliari win, and the last encounter before that one was played seven years ago.

Over 2.5 Goals

Modena is the best ‘over’ team in the league with 12 matches that had more than two goals scored. The average number of goals scored in their matches is 2.9 per game. Cagliari is a bit modest compared to that stat, they had nine matches that covered over 2.5 goals. In their h2h statistics, three out of their last four matches ended with more than two goals scored. The prediction seems rational in choice because Cagliari has the experience to score goals on any occasion while Modena has a faulty defense that breaks quite often.

Modena to Score First

Modena is a team that likes to play to their offensive potential straight away, and in that aspect, it is their tactic to pressure their opponent and make sure they get on the scoreboard first. It is curious to notice how Cagliari when playing away, scored their first goal either late in the first half or in the second half of play. That happened in four out of their last five guest appearances.

Match Preview for the round 23 Serie B match between Modena and Cagliari

Modena

The home team’s biggest problem this season is their propensity to allow too many goals. Even when they are playing at home it seems that they can’t defend themselves if their life depends on it. At least while playing in front of their fans they are scoring more goals than they concede. Modena is undefeated in their last four home matches and will be eager to continue that streak. There are some injury issues within the team, Fabio Ponsi is out while Davide Marsura and Thomas Battistella are doubtful to play.

Attilio Tesser´s News:

The team is in a stage of the tournament in which winning will be essential to maintain the chances of qualifying for the playoffs, fortunately, the Italian coach will have almost the entire squad available. Thomas Battistella will be the only player who will not be taken into account, as he is not at 100%. The 21-year-old player has not had any minutes so far this season due to some physical problems that do not allow him to fight for a place in the team’s midfield.

Cagliari

The visiting team’s away form is the second worst in the league which is incredible as they are still inside the top eight of the rankings. Cosenza is the only team worse in that aspect. Cagliari has won only one match as a guest team drawing five times, and losing on four occasions. Leonardo Pavoletti and Alessandro Deiola are injured and won’t be able to play. Nicolas Viola, Edoardo Goldaniga, and Luigi Palomba are in a fitness race to be fit for the game.

Claudio Ranieri´s News:

The experienced Italian coach will have his full squad available so there will be no excuse for not winning their next game against a mid-table team. Right now, Cagliari has a playoff spot, but direct promotion is still within reach, so the Islanders must take advantage of every point at stake.
