Torino vs Cagliari prediction, preview, team news and more | Italian Serie A 2021-22

Serie A returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Torino play host to Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on Sunday.

This will be the second meeting between the sides this season after the spoils were shared in a 1-1 draw in December’s reverse fixture.

Torino put in a resilient performance as they came from behind to salvage a 1-1 draw in last Friday’s Turin Derby against Juventus.

However, they have now failed to win any of their last four outings, claiming two draws and losing two since a 2-1 win over Sampdoria on January 15.

While they have one game in hand, Torino are currently 10th in the Serie A table with 33 points from 25 games, level on points with 11th placed Sassuolo.

Meanwhile, Cagliari were involved in a share of the spoils for the second game running last time out as they played out a 1-1 draw with Napoli.

They have now managed just one win from their last six games in all competitions, losing two and picking up three draws in that time.

With 22 points from 26 games, Gli Isolani are currently 17th in the league standings, level on points with Venezia who are in the final relegation spot.
