The last was Salernitana, able to take home the full prize against Lazio over the weekend. On the previous day, the coup was achieved by Empoli, who emerged with three points from "Maradona", with Lecce and Udinese holding Milan and Atalanta to a draw. In this Serie A, getting a result with the big teams is possible, even if Cagliari hasn't done it yet. The next opportunity will come on Saturday, when the rossoblù will visit Lazio .
Not the most comfortable of opponents, given that in the case of the Sardinians it is a real bête noire . In the last sixteen matches between the two teams, Cagliari has never beaten the Biancocelesti, drawing only three times.
The last victory dates back to 19 May 2013 when, on the final day, a header from Daniele Dessena resolved the match fifteen minutes from the end at the Nereo Rocco in Trieste. Ivo Pulga sat on the bench, and it is enough to take a look at the rossoblù formation to understand how much time has passed: in attack the Sardinians lined up the Thiago Ribeiro-Pinilla-Ibarbo trident, and in midfield Captain Conti was supported by Eriksson and Nainggolan. In front of Avramov, Dessena as the right back and Avelar on the left. In the centre, Rossettini with the unforgettable Davide Astori.
Tonight, meanwhile, Lazio will face Celtic in the penultimate match of the Champions League groups, with kick-off at the Olimpico at 6.45pm.
