Cagliari are 17th with 22 points. This team will fight for survival, so far it manages to outstrip the relegation zone by two points, but at the same time Torino has two fewer games. Potentially, Cagliari has the necessary resources to maintain a residence permit in Serie A. However, so far the situation looks dangerous. We also note a significant improvement in the results recently, which helped to slightly correct the situation. In the away match against Crotone there was a victory (2:0), the authors of goals scored were Pavoletti and Joao Pedro. The victory over Bologna (1:0) is also impressive. In addition, Cagliari was able to play a draw with Sampdoria away (2:2). Moreover, the point was pulled out already at last moments of the meeting. Raja Nainggolan became the author of the important ball. Cagliari’s roster allows them to fight. But stability is lacking. The team succeeded in a successful segment, but it is extremely important to continue at the same pace, because the problem is far from solved, everything is just beginning.
This is not to say that Burnley have looked weak in recent games. Sean Ditch’s team is desperately clinging for points, although they managed to win only once in the last nine rounds. By the way, the “burgundy” won just on the road against Crystal Palace (3:0). At the same time, they lost to Burnley just once in seven previous meetings, finishing five of them in a draw. In the standings, Burnley has managed to stay close to the relegation zone for now. They are only four points ahead of Fulham, so the whole battle for registration is still ahead. It should be noted that such good results in the last rounds “Burnley” achieved mainly in their home arena, because six of the eight previous league matches the team played just in their own walls. Although on the road, Sean Ditch’s charges can also surprise. For example, at the end of January they beat Liverpool with a score 1:0 away, which had never lost more than 60 games in a row at home in the Premier League. Only striker Ashley Barnes will definitely not play in the match due to injury. Doubtful are Charlie Taylor, Robbie Brady and Jack Cork.
