Bologna will host Cagliari on May 3, 2026, at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara. The match is crucial for both teams as Bologna struggles to secure a home win, contrasting with their historical dominance over Cagliari.
Current standings:
- Bologna is in 9th position in Serie A with 48 points.
- Cagliari sits in 16th position with 36 points.
- Bologna has lost seven of their nine league fixtures played at home in 2026.
- Cagliari has won two of their last three matches.
- Bologna is unbeaten in their last twelve home games against Cagliari.
Bologna’s recent form has been disappointing. They have lost their last two Serie A matches without scoring. In contrast, Cagliari may arrive in better spirits after defeating Atalanta 3-2 earlier this week. This victory could boost their confidence as they fight to avoid relegation.
Key players:
- Riccardo Orsolini, Bologna’s top scorer, has netted six goals in the last six meetings against Cagliari.
- Cagliari’s defense has struggled lately, losing their last three away games while conceding eight goals.
- Fabio Pisacane and Paul Mendy are also expected to play significant roles for Cagliari.
Despite Bologna’s struggles this season, history favors them. They have won the last three encounters against Cagliari, including a decisive 2-0 victory in their most recent match. However, the stakes are high for both sides as they seek crucial points in Serie A.
