Betting Insights
- With Roma priced at a very short 1.75 to win and Cagliari at 5.52, the draw at 3.81 is the pick of the match result odds, but we are going to stay away from the result and take the 1.75 in the Under 2.5 goals market. For those looking for value, our Cagliari vs AS Roma betting tips also suggest considering alternative markets such as goals or anytime scorer options.
- Sebastiano Esposito is a strong shout in the anytime scorer market given his recent form.
Prediction
The quality and depth that Roma possess in the front third, coupled with Gasperini’s creativity, should ultimately see them edge a low-scoring game against a solid Cagliari side.
