Prediction
Cagliari have to be compelled to win this match, when successive defeats have seen them slip towards the relegation zone. they're enjoying all their "home" matches at a neutral venue and also the pressure is well and really on them. Catania don't seem to be on sensible kind removed from home, therefore it is time for Ficcadenti to travel and guarantee safety.
Catania proved that they weren't adequate to be concerned within the chase for a eu spot, as they started dropping points as soon as qualification was a chance. Montella is simply reaching to avoid a foul finish to the season, and a degree removed from home may do the task.
Expect Cagliari to require the initiative, however at an equivalent time Catania won't sit and wait as their enjoying vogue is concerning controlling the midfield. The away aspect can try and management possession and avoid any risks, whereas the Sardinians could take some risks themselves within the second 0.5 if the result's still within the balance. In the end, the hosts are a lot of hungry to win which may well be all necessary.
