Cagliari don prepare well as dem dey set to face Inter Milan for Unipol Domus this Saturday night. Dis match fit shock everybody as Cagliari, wey dey struggle usually, dey sit on top Inter for table by one point. Na wetin we go call ‘top half tussle’!
Last season, Cagliari finish 15th, dat one na like sabi wey dem fit get, but this season dem don show say dem no wan carry last. New coach Fabio Pisacane don inspire dem to gather seven points in di first four matches (W2, D1, L1). If dem fit continue with di momentum, abeg, wetin dem go fit achieve?
As dem dey come back from impressive 4-1 win against Frosinone for Coppa Italia, positivity don full di team. But e no go be walk in di park against Inter o! Chivu wey dey coach Inter, him dey face plenty pressure after dem don lose back-to-back matches before winning against Sassuolo last week.
Inter need to gather point sharp-quick because dem dey lag behind Napoli wey don dey lead by six points already. So if dem no fit find form, wahala fit dey for dem. Cagliari too don show dem no go just roll over because dem don collect wins against Parma and Lecce, and dem dey eye dat third win wey dem no see since April 2021.
But na here the gist get twist. Cagliari no sabi how to face Inter. Last season, Inter whip dem 3-0 for di same venue, and Cagliari never sabi how to win dem for di last 15 meets (D2, L12). Na serious mountain wey dem dey climb!
If dem wan break dat jinx, na im go mean say dem fit win back-to-back home games for di first time since last year. And e go sweet if dem fit bounce back again from behind because Cagliari don show say dem dey gather more points from losing positions dis season.
For Inter, Chivu dey feel heat as e get one eye on di win record against Cagliari. Dem don only manage three wins out of di last ten away games. And if dem wan maintain dem top club status, dem need to step up any time dem dey away.
Na true wahala be dis for Inter because dem no get di solid defence wey dem dey used to. Dem don concede seven goals dis season. Dat’s almost like dem dey play ‘giveaway’ match!
Plus, injury issue dey play on di part of Cagliari as dem go miss star player Gabriele Zappa. But, Zito Luvumbo fit return, depending on how e dey feel. For Inter, dem don welcome back Lautaro Martinez, who go definitely add some kind firepower for di attack.
Match predictions dey pepper plenty fans, as some dey expect draw. But we fit see wetin Cagliari go bring to di table dis time around as dem try to show say dem fit challenge di kings of di Serie A.
As dem prepare to clash, no anytime dey waka pass. This game fit change season outlook for both teams!
