A return to caution after the defeat in Monza: Cagliari coach Fabio Pisacane is ready to revive the single-striker formation that had yielded 13 points from the first six games against Bologna on Saturday afternoon at the Unipol Domus.
The Rossoblu coach, after his one-match suspension, will be back on the sidelines. Nzola, who started at the Brianteo stadium, is expected to start on the bench. Mendy, on the other hand, will be confirmed , with Maldini filling the role that allowed the former Lazio and Atalanta player to score four goals in a row (one from a penalty) in four games.
Captain Deiola is likely to return to the starting midfield alongside Romano, Winks, and Adopo . However, Fazzini remains an option, having been out of the starting lineup since the away match against Udinese.
The back four will consist of Zè Pedro, Mina, Rodriguez, and Obert. Some changes are possible, especially considering the upcoming match against Monza: Kofler and Sugawara are on high alert.
The usual Felici and Idrissi are out. Since yesterday, Trepy, two months after his swimming accident on the Costa Smeralda and his hospitalization in intensive care, has been training with the rest of the team. However, he likely won't be called up for Saturday's match: his return to action for now will be with the Primavera.
