Cagliari changed the coach after only 3 games but so far under Mazzarri we didn't saw any improvement as he collected the same points as the previous one.

There are few ideas, and a game that struggles to exploit despite the change on the bench.

Started with a draw against Lazio and then 2 losts against Empoli at home and Napoli. Coach Mazzarri said that the team is not yet adapted on his style and defend very bad. Some of the goals has been conceded by individual mistakes mostly by defenders.

For this game Mazzarri will use the 3-5-2 but very offensive with 2 strikers Joao Pedro and Keita from the beginning. Nandez will be returned in midfield, while the defense will be the same with Godin,Caceres and Ceppitelli.

Out are def Dalbert (5/0) and st Ceter (1/0).

Venezia in other hand managed to stop Torino in a draw last week. So far they collected 4 points after 6 games. It's a good result considering that they have one of the youngest and unexperienced rosters in Serie A.

Coach Zanetti uses only offensive football but against top teams it doesn't produce points.

The goal is still to avoid the relegation but I see it difficult with these kind of players. Many of them plays for the 1st time in Serie A. Venezia have many weak points in the team especially defense.

Out for this game are 1st gk Lezzerini (2/0) and mid Sigursson (2/0).

Cagliari have more quality and experience, if we see on paper they don't belong to relegation race. I think it's time for them to get the 1st win of the season.

Probable lineups:

CAGLIARI (3-5-2): Cragno; Caceres, Ceppitelli, Godin; Nandez, Deiola, Marin, Strootman, Lykogiannis; Joao Pedro, Keita.

VENEZIA (4-3-3): Maenpaa; Mazzocchi, Caldara, Ceccaroni, Schnegg; Crnigoj, Ampadu, Busio; Aramu, Okereke, Johnsen.

GL!
