Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson is anticipating a tight, low-scoring game between two sides short of goals.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Over 9.5 total corners7/5 (Paddy Power)Two low-scoring, cagey sides often produce a scrappy, stop-start game where clear chances are at a premium and corners become the main source of pressure. Neither Cagliari nor Bologna have been fluent going forward this season, so expect plenty of blocked crosses and half-chances rather than clean openings. The 9.5 line looks beatable in that kind of grind, and Paddy Power’s 7/5 is the best price for the over in a game likely to be fought out in the wide areas.
Bologna to win to nil3/1 (bet365)Cagliari have scored just six goals in seven games and have blanked a couple of times, so backing them to be kept quiet is far from a stretch. Bologna have won three of the last five meetings, including 2-0 on each of their last two league visits to Cagliari, although they are yet to keep a clean sheet this season and will need to tighten up. A Bologna win to nil at 3/1 with bet365 looks a fair price given how blunt the hosts have been in front of goal this season.

How Cagliari go into the game

Cagliari sit seventh and have been well organised, keeping three clean sheets, though scoring has been a struggle with just six goals. Daniel Maldini has four of them.

A 4-0 loss at Monza last time out was a blip in a run that also brought wins over Udinese, Atalanta and Lecce, and at home they will look to frustrate a Bologna side low on confidence.

How Bologna go into the game

Bologna have endured a poor start, sitting 15th with only six goals and four defeats from seven. A 3-1 home loss to Inter last time out continued the slump.

Roberto Piccoli has led the line but the goals have dried up, and Bologna will take heart only from a strong recent record against Cagliari.
