Serie A | Genoa CFC VS Cagliari Calcio; Tuesday, 30 April at 02:45 GMT +8

Genoa is aiming to avoid a repeat of their 0-1 Serie A loss against Lazio, where they managed 39% possession and 8 shots on goal. Genoa’s defensive performance has been poor, with five of their previous six games resulting in seven goals. They have not won over Cagliari in their previous three league matches and have not won a home match in their past three league matches. This match is expected to be a test for their performance.

Cagliari’s recent Serie A match with Juventus resulted in a 2-2 draw, with Cagliari having 26% possession and 9 attempts at goal. They scored goals from Gianluca Gaetano, Yerry Mina, and Alberto Dossena. However, Cagliari has been scored against in six of their last six matches, conceding nine goals. Their form guide indicates they have not won against Genoa away from home in their previous eight league matches and have not won away from home in their last two matches.

Genoa boss Alberto Gilardino will not allow Mattia Bani, Junior Messias, Ruslan Malinovskyi, and Alan Matturro to play due to injuries. Il Grifone may use a 3-5-2 system in the first half, with Josep Martinez, Alessandro Vogliacco, Koni De Winter, and Vitinha among the players.

Cagliari manager Claudio Ranieri is preparing for a game against Rossoblu due to player fitness concerns, with Leonardo Pavoletti and Marco Mancosu unavailable for selection and Zito Luvumbo suspended. The team is expected to use a 3-5-2 system.
