Cagliari vs AC Milan PREVIEW & PREDICTION 18/01/2021

On Monday, starting with 19:45, the match Cagliari – AC Milan will be played, from the round with number 18 in Serie A.

The “Rossoneri” arrive in Cagliari with big staff problems. However, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is ready to lead Steano Pioli’s team to a new victory, which would “secure” the first position in the Serie A standings. However, they will have to deal with Razvan Marin’s team without Leao (suspended). , Rebic (self-isolated), Krunic (quarantined), Gabbia (injured), Hernandez and Calhanoglu (both declared positive on Saturday at Covid-19).

In turn, the host team will have staffing problems. Eusebio Di Francesco will not be able to rely on the services of players such as Rog, Farago, Luvumbo (injured), Nandez (suspended), Glavang and Carboni (both Covid-19).

Certainly, there is no doubt that both Cagliari and AC Milan have significant batch problems. In this sense, we expect that for both teams to evolve more players who played less this season and, unequivocally, the “reserves” of the guests are clearly superior to those in Cagliari. We take into account this aspect, as well as the moral “boost” given by the return of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and we invest in a solid game of “white-reds”.

Cagliari (4-2-3-1): Cragno; Zappa, Godin, Walukiewicz, Lykogiannis; Nainggolan, Marin; Sottil, Pedro, Ounas; Simeone;

AC Milan (4-2-3-1): Donnarumma; Calabria, Romagnoli, Kjaer, Dalot; Kessie, Tonali; Castillejo, Diaz, Hauge; Ibrahimovic.
