Cagliari – Fiorentina

Cagliari host Fiorentina in what looks to be a stark contrast of form, with the Sardinian side perched in fifth place on nine points after three wins and a single loss, boasting a tidy 4‑2 goal difference. Fiorentina, meanwhile, languish down at 15th with just three points from one victory and three defeats, their defensive frailties evident in a leaky 5‑11 record. The home side will be keen to extend their unbeaten run and cement a top‑four push, while the Florentines must find a way to tighten up at the back if they are to climb out of the relegation zone. Head‑to‑head, Cagliari have the recent edge, but a slip‑up could see Fiorentina spark a late‑season revival.
