Match Preview
Cagliari is one of the weaker teams in Serie A and looks set to struggle for survival this season. The team lacks standout qualities, has a notably weak squad, and their overall performance has been disappointing. Last season, they only narrowly avoided relegation, finishing with a goal difference of -26. Despite this close call, the club’s management didn’t make significant moves in the transfer market, resulting in no major signings. Their summer friendlies were also underwhelming, with their sole victory coming against Catanzaro (2-0).

Carrarese last played in Serie B back in 1947, and their strong performance last season finally brought them back to Italy’s second tier. The team from Carrara is relatively unknown, lacks standout individual players, and relies heavily on its famous owner, Gianluigi Buffon. In the new season, Carrarese has already played one official match, where they performed well, securing a 2-1 victory over Catania in the 1/64 finals of the Italian Cup.

Goaloo Prediction
Cagliari enters the upcoming match as the clear favorite, which isn’t surprising. While Carrarese played impressively last season, their lack of experience in high-stakes games could impact their performance. Additionally, Cagliari tends to perform well against weaker opponents and will be playing at home. We believe the "Islanders" will live up to their billing and secure a 2-0 victory. Our top pick is a Cagliari win with a handicap of -1.

Pick: Cagliari Calcio Handicap (-1)
