Latest Cagliari vs Parma team information
Cagliari coach Davide Nicola is likely to field a strong squad this weekend, with Zito Luvumbo back in full training after being sidelined for several weeks with an ankle injury.
The Angolan striker is likely to start the match on the bench, while top scorer Roberto Piccoli continues to take on the role of centre-forward for the Rossoblu.
Coach Nicola's main selection dilemma continues to be in central midfield, where Razvan Marin must compete with Alessandro Deiola, Michel Adopo and Antoine Makoumbou for a place in the starting line-up.
In contrast, Parma - a team that recruited a number of new players in the winter transfer window - are facing a significant absentee list.
Defensive duo Yordan Osorio and Alessandro Circati are out injured, along with Mateusz Kowalski and Gabriel Charpentier. Hernani is also struggling with a muscle problem. Romanian wingers Dennis Man and Valentin Mihaila are also doubts.
More good news for coach Fabio Pecchia, captain Enrico Del Prato has returned after serving his suspension and will definitely start at right-back.
Latest predicted lineup for Cagliari vs Parma
Cagliari:
Caprile; Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Augello; Makoumbou, Adopo; Zortea, Viola, Felici; Piccoli
Parma:
Suzuki; Del Prato, Valenti, Vogliacco, Valeri; Keita, Sohm; Cancellieri, Haj, Almqvist; Djuric
Latest Cagliari vs Parma football review
After starting 2025 with a promising three-game unbeaten run - beating Lecce and Monza (direct rivals) along the way - Cagliari have lost their last two games (conceding two goals in each).
In their most recent game on Monday evening, the Sardinian side caused plenty of problems for in-form Lazio as Roberto Piccoli equalised early in the second half.
The striker took his career tally to 19 goals in Serie A. Remarkably, all of those goals have come against different clubs - a unique record across Europe's top five leagues. However, Lazio soon struck the winner.
The 2-1 defeat means Cagliari have kept just two clean sheets so far. Their poor defensive record could cost them dearly in their relegation battle.
The Rossoblu have lost six of their last 10 home games and coach Davide Nicola is well aware that another defeat on Sunday would push them into the bottom three.
Having won four of their last five Serie A home games against Parma - as many as in their previous 11 - history is on their side heading into this weekend's clash.
In fact, after a 2-3 home defeat in the first leg in September, Parma have failed to win in their last six meetings with Cagliari in Italy's top flight.
A defeat to Cagliari could see the Emilian side fall four points from safety, depending on the results of other games.
Since November, Fabio Pecchia's side have lost eight of their 13 league games. Only Monza have lost more (over that period).
Last week's 3-1 defeat to Lecce also continued an alarming trend for last season's Serie B champions, with Parma conceding the most goals in the second half.
In addition, Gialloblu have only won 1 point in their last 5 away trips. After being unbeaten in 5 consecutive away matches, they have lost 4 of their last 5 matches.
