This weekend is gameweek 22 in Serie A, with many clubs seeking out points to aid their season objectives.
One team who is in serious need of points is struggling Cagliari, who go head-to-head with Torino at the Unipol Domus on Friday night.
Where are the two teams in the table?
Cagliari needs points due to their perilous position of 17th place in the Serie A table, only a point above the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, the visitors are the definition of midtable, as the team from Turin is currently in tenth place in the table, five points adrift of the European spots, and 11 points clear of the danger zone.
What is their recent form like?
In their current position in the Serie A table, it is unsurprising that Cagliari’s recent league form has not been great, as they have recorded just one win in their previous six outings in the Italian top flight.
A lack of clean sheets has been an issue for Cagliari, as they have managed to keep out just one of their last 17 opponents in Serie A.
Torino’s recent form has been inconsistent, as they have won just one of their previous four games in Serie A. On the flip side, though, Il Toro has also lost just once in their last seven outings in the league.
The visitor's recent outings in the Italian top flight have been mostly low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their previous six outings in Serie A.
Those low-scoring games have mainly been due to Torino’s defensive solidity, as they have kept clean sheets in four of their previous six league games.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that these two teams will play out a goalless draw.
