"Signing off January with a stellar performance as they cruised their way to an empathic 4-0 romp against Verona, Fabio Pisacane's side have won each of their other three Serie A appearances and they have skyrocketed their way up the table. Springing an iconic upset on January 17th as they secured a 1-0 victory against Juventus, Cagliari will know that they can move within touching distance of the top-half here."
"All still dealing with respective knee injuries, Cagliari will be unable to call upon the quartet of Mattia Felci, Andrea Belotti, Michael Folorunsho and former Everton defender Yerry Mina on Monday night. Finding the net in two of his previous three Serie A appearances, Turkish starlet Semih Kilicsoy will spearhead Pisacane's charge in the final third. Making a permanent switch from Atalanta ahead of the 2025/26 campaign, Michel Adopo will start in the middle of the park."
"As for the visitors, claiming what was an essential boost last time out as they secured a 2-1 victory at home against Udinese, Lecce will be desperate to spring another upset on Monday night. However, holding just a one-point buffer from slipping back into the relegation zone, Eusebio Di Francesco's side have a real battle on their hands in the race to once again cling to their Serie A status."
Cagliari host Lecce at the Unipol Domus on Monday night. Cagliari lost 2-0 at Roma but had won each of their other three Serie A matches and beat Verona 4-0. Fabio Pisacane's side beat Juventus 1-0 on January 17 and have lost only one of their last six home matches. Mattia Felci, Andrea Belotti, Michael Folorunsho and Yerry Mina are sidelined with knee injuries. Semih Kilicsoy has scored in two of his last three Serie A appearances and Michel Adopo will start in midfield. Lecce beat Udinese 2-1, hold a one-point cushion above the relegation zone, and face pressure to avoid relegation.
