As if it were a medieval challenge, Cagliari Calcio 's salvation goes from three battles to the last goal against the former maritime republics.

From here to the end of the championship, the rossoblùs are in fact called to score points against Genoa, Venice and Salernitana (Amalfi, a former Italian naval power, is in the province of Salerno). Only Pisa is missing to complete the re-enactment of the struggle for dominance over the Mare Nostrum.

The situation is only apparently calm: Walter Mazzarri 's team has a six-point advantage over the Grifone and the lagoons, but the latter have to recover a race. And then there are the Campanians, who in spite of the last place in this 2022 have definitely changed pace compared to the first part of the championship and always seem ready to sell their skin dearly (see the last two challenges against Rome and Sampdoria).

In short, Cagliari are facing three direct clashes in five games still to be played and winning at Marassi on Sunday could give the Sardinians more confidence to face the latest poker of challenges. A sort of match point to celebrate your stay in the top flight of Italian football . Also because Venezia face Atalanta, in crisis of results, but determined not to miss the train for Europe.

Against the Ligurian Mazzarri will have to replace Lovato, disqualified, at the center of the defense and for this reason the coach hopes to be able to recover Ceppitelli and / or Goldaniga, both struggling with physical problems. And then there is a weapon that the coach could play again, after months off: Nahitan Nandez.
