Roma vs Cagliari Preview

Roma sit third in Serie A after a commanding start under Gian Piero Gasperini, winning four of their last five matches and drawing the other. Their 16 goals scored against just three conceded across seven fixtures underline a side firing at both ends. A 2-0 victory over Genoa last time out kept momentum rolling, though a serious injury crisis clouds the picture. Paulo Dybala is confirmed absent, and six further players are training separately.

Cagliari arrive in the capital having won three of their last four league outings, a run that has lifted them to seventh. That sequence includes a notable 1-0 triumph over Roma in the reverse fixture back in December, a result that will fuel belief among the visiting squad. Their away form has been less convincing, however, with a defeat in their most recent road trip tempering expectations. Davide Nicola's side will fancy an upset at the Olimpico.

Roma's home win at 1.33 represents the strongest selection here. Gasperini's side have scored 16 goals and conceded just three across seven matches, a record that underlines their dominance at both ends. Sitting third with five wins and two draws, they carry genuine momentum into this fixture despite a lengthy injury list.

Cagliari have improved recently, collecting three consecutive victories to climb to seventh, yet their away form remains inconsistent. A defeat in their most recent road outing highlights vulnerability when travelling to stronger opponents. Roma's defensive solidity, conceding fewer than half a goal per match on average, makes the home win a well-supported pick.

The over 2.5 goals line at 1.72 also merits attention. Roma's attacking output has been prolific, averaging over two goals per fixture. Even without Paulo Dybala, options such as Santiago Castro and the returning Donyell Malen provide Gasperini with sufficient firepower to breach a Cagliari rearguard that lacks top-tier resilience away from Sardinia.

Low confidence

Both lineups carry a speculated status ahead of Tuesday evening's fixture at the Stadio Olimpico, so a degree of caution is warranted before treating either XI as settled. Roma's Lorenzo Pellegrini sits at the heart of a 3-4-2-1 that asks the midfield to cover considerable ground, while Cagliari line up in a mirroring 4-3-2-1 built to stay compact on the road.

The tactical contest shapes up as a battle between Roma's wider defensive structure and Cagliari's narrower, more layered midfield block. Daniel Maldini operating in the pocket behind the striker will be central to whether the visitors can threaten on the break, and how Roma's wing-backs manage the space in behind will likely define the rhythm of the match.
