Roma have won six of their 11 home league games; only five Serie A teams have a better home record.
Cagliari have picked up just six points from their 10 away Serie A contests, conceding 22 goals.
Both teams have netted in each of Roma’s last four matches.
Mourinho’s men need to bounce back
Consecutive defeats to AC Milan and Juventus have left Roma nine points away from a top four place, and the Jose Mourinho project looks like unravelling in an all-too-familiar fashion, with the Portuguese lashing out at officials and questioning the quality of his squad in the aftermath of both.
However, Roma were outstanding for 70 minutes of their 4-3 loss to Juventus, producing arguably their best performance of the campaign before throwing away a two-goal lead. Roma also have a strong home record; winning six of 11 Serie A games at the Stadio Olimpico, and they will be confident of bouncing back against Cagliari, who they beat 2-1 in Sardinia earlier this season.
Cagliari have racked up crucial back-to-back wins since Christmas, moving to within one point of safety, but have only taken six points from 10 away league games. Walter Mazzarri’s team have also kept just one clean sheet in 23 outings in all competitions this season.
Roma to edge out Sardinians, but not without difficulty
Roma’s record of 28 goals conceded gives them just the seventh-strongest defensive record in the Italian top-flight, and their one and only clean sheet since November came against struggling Spezia.
Both teams have scored in each of the Romans’ last four games, and although Roma have enough about them to ease the pressure on Mourinho with a win, we’re backing that run to continue against a Cagliari team who are showing much-needed improvements.
A repeat of Roma’s earlier 2-1 win over Mazzarri’s team, meanwhile, seems a decent correct score prediction.
译文(自动翻译仅供参考):
罗马在11场主场比赛中赢了6场;只有五支意甲球队的主场战绩比他好。
卡利亚里在10场意甲客场比赛中只拿到6分,丢了22球。
这两支球队在罗马最近的四场比赛中都进了球。
穆里尼奥的球员需要振作起来
连续击败AC米兰和尤文图斯已经离开罗马9分从四大地方,和穆里尼奥项目看起来像解体在一个再熟悉不过的方式,与葡萄牙猛烈抨击官员和质疑他的球队后的质量。
然而,在4-3负于尤文图斯的比赛中,罗马在70分钟内表现出色,在丢掉两球领先优势之前,他们创造了可以说是本赛季最好的表现。罗马也有一个强大的主场记录;在奥林匹克球场的11场意甲比赛中,他们赢得了6场胜利,他们将有信心在本赛季早些时候2-1击败卡利亚里的比赛中卷土重来。
自圣诞节以来,卡利亚里已经取得了关键的背靠背胜利,将比分拉近到一分以内,但在10场客场比赛中只拿下了6分。沃特·马扎里的球队在本赛季所有比赛的23场出赛中也只有一场没有失球。
罗马人击败了撒丁岛人,但并非没有困难
罗马的28球失球记录使他们的防守在意大利顶级联赛中排名第七,而且他们自去年11月以来唯一一场不失球的比赛是对阵斯佩西亚。
这两支球队在最近四场比赛中都有进球,虽然罗马有足够的实力来缓解穆里尼奥的压力,但我们支持这种势头,在对阵表现出急需改善的卡利亚里队时继续保持这种势头。
与此同时,罗马2-1战胜马扎里的球队,这似乎是一个不错的正确的进球预测。
