Monday is free for Cagliari, after yesterday's resounding 3-0 victory against Monza in the thirtieth day of Serie A. For the rossoblù, who have climbed to 29 points in the standings, next Sunday there will be a direct clash: with third-last Empoli, who slipped to -6 after having drawn 1-1 in Como on Saturday. Training is scheduled to resume on Tuesday afternoon, at the Crai Sport Center in Assemini. With Davide Nicola who, like president Tommaso Giulini , reiterated how it is necessary to maintain the highest level of attention because salvation - although closer since yesterday - has not yet been achieved.
The match at Castellani will be the first of two consecutive away matches for Cagliari, who will be in Empoli on Sunday at 3pm and then go to Milan on Saturday 12th (6pm) to challenge league leaders Inter . This last match will see former great Nicolò Barella return to action: booked yesterday in the recovery of the 2-1 victory over Udinese, he was on a yellow card and will miss Parma on Saturday before returning to play for the rossoblù.
In view of Sunday, starting tomorrow, Adam Obert will have to be evaluated. The defender was the only absentee among those called up yesterday, after the low-grade distraction to the sartorius muscle of the left thigh suffered on Thursday 20 in Slovakia-Slovenia in the Nations League. The medical staff's objective is to recover him for Empoli, otherwise his return to Inter has been postponed . This week will also serve to get Florinel Coman back into shape, who of the three (now ex) injured players is the only one who did not have minutes in Cagliari-Monza.
