Cagliari and Bologna meet in the eighth round of Serie A on 24 October 2026, with the visitors listed as the favourites despite their difficult start to the season.
Cagliari have made the stronger beginning to the campaign and currently sit eighth in the table with 13 points. Their total has come from four wins and one draw, while they have lost twice.
However, Davide Nicola’s side have failed to win either of their past two matches. Cagliari drew 1-1 with Juventus before suffering a heavy 4-0 defeat by Monza in their most recent outing.
Bologna arrive in 15th place with five points from their opening seven games. They have won once, drawn twice and lost four times.
Their only victory in the past five rounds came against Lecce, when Bologna recovered to win 2-1. They were unable to build on that result, losing their next match 3-1 to Inter. Their record makes an away victory a challenging prospect, although the visitors are regarded as the favourites for this fixture.
Cagliari have won three of their past five matches, while Bologna have recorded one victory in the same period. The most recent meeting between the two clubs ended goalless at 0-0.
The prediction for the match is that both teams will score, with each side expected to find the net at least once.
