Italian Serie A-AS Roma VS Cagliari

 

Top-four contenders Roma tackle relegation-threatened Cagliari on Monday, when the two teams clash at Stadio Olimpico.

 

Back-to-back wins since Daniele De Rossi's arrival have helped the Giallorossi inch up the Serie A standings, while their visitors have recently slipped back into the drop zone.

 

Making an immediate impact upon his installation as Roma boss following Jose Mourinho's sacking, Daniele De Rossi led his new side to successive Serie A victories in January, to keep them in the hunt for Champions League qualification.

 

Given the combination of Roma's fine home record and Cagliari's woes on the road, only one outcome is likely in Serie A's Monday contest. The Giallorossi are rejuvenated under new management, so three more points should be theirs for the taking.
