| PROBABLE LINE-UPS |
CAGLIARI  Agazzi Pisano, Canini, Astori, Agostini Ekdal, Nainggolan, Dessena CossuIbarbo, Larrivey | ROMA  Stekelenburg Rosi, Juan, Heinze, Taddei Pjanic, Greco, Gago Lamela, Totti, Borini |
Cagliari will entertain the Giallorossi without the services of Lorenzo Ariaudo, with the former Juventus youth still nursing the back injury that has seen him miss the club's last two encounters, while long term casualties Sebastian Eriksson and Nene will also miss out.
Luis Enrique's Roma will go into Wednesday's clash without long-term absentees Dani Osvaldo and Nicolas Burdisso, with the pair still suffering from a muscle strain and a ligament problem respectively.
However, the capital club could be boosted by the potential return of Daniele De Rossi and Marco Cassetti, and although the duo are unlikely to start the match, they may well make an appearance from the bench.
| DID YOU KNOW? |
- Cagliari have won only one of their last seven league games.
- The hosts have only managed to win two of their home games in Serie A this season.
- Only Cesena have scored less goals than the Rossoblu this term.
- Roma have won four of their last five league games.
- However they have only managed to win one of their last three games in all competitions.
- The Giallorossi have conceded the same amount of goals as the hosts have this season, yet remain eight places and eight points above the Rossoblu.
Prediction
With the Giallorossi recording four victories in their last five league games, along with the host's poor run of form, a comfortable victory for the visitors seems the likely outcome.
Editor's Prediction
Cagliari 0-2 Roma
