Cagliari vs AC Milan

AC Milan are looking to crank up the pressure on the leaders when they travel to Cagliari for a Friday night Italian Serie A fixture.

The Rossoneri have still only lost once in the league this season and will come into this clash feeling confident. They should get the better of the hosts, who have found things difficult on home soil lately.

Cagliari News

Cagliari head into Friday's clash off the back of a 2-1 victory at Torino in their previous Serie A fixture. They fought back from behind with goals from Matteo Prati and Semih Kilicsoy earning them the win.

While manager Fabio Pisacane will be pleased with that result, it was only the second win in 10 matches across all competitions for Cagliari, who have struggled lately. They have also had little respite at home and are winless in five of their last six matches at Unipol Domus.

Cagliari are generally poor at the back, but often attempt to show some attacking quality. This dynamic has seen their last three matches produce over 2.5 goals.

AC Milan News

It has been a solid campaign for AC Milan so far, sitting second in the table, one point behind local rivals Inter Milan. Massimiliano Allegri's team have still only lost one Serie A fixture all season and will be full of confidence heading into this clash.

AC Milan are coming off a 3-0 home victory over Verona last time out in Serie A, with Christian Pulisic and Christopher Nkunku getting their goals. They have also earned some solid results on their travels, winning two of their last three away matches in the league.

The Rossoneri have no problems in attack and have scored over 1.5 goals in three of their last four matches across all competitions. All three fixtures on this run have also produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

AC Milan have a solid record in this fixture, with nine wins and three draws in the last 12 matches against Cagliari. Both teams drew their two meetings last season, playing out a 3-3 draw in the first clash before a 1-1 scoreline in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Cagliari v AC Milan

AC Milan are having a solid campaign and also boast a fine record in this fixture. They should claim the upper hand over Cagliari, who are winless in five of their last six home matches.

The Rossoneri are looking sharp in attack at the moment, and having scored over 1.5 goals in three of their last four matches, a repeat could be considered. With Cagliari's last three fixtures producing over 2.5 goals, a similar outcome could be on the cards here.
