The 2024-25 edition of Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Cagliari take on Paulo Fonseca's AC Milan side in an important clash at the Sardegna Arena on Saturday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will be determined to win this game.
Cagliari vs AC Milan Preview
AC Milan are in seventh place in the Serie A standings (with a game in hand) and have been inconsistent this season. The Rossoneri stunned Real Madrid with a 3-1 victory in the UEFA Champions League in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar scoreline this weekend.
Cagliari, on the other hand, are in 16th place in the league table and have not been at their best this season. The home side suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Lazio last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
