The value of Cagliari-Lecce is further underlined by the standings: two points separate the two teams, whoever wins makes a significant step forward in the fight for salvation. The rossoblù arrive at today's match at 3 pm third-last, in the relegation zone, but with morale made much higher by the victory in Monza and the draw with Milan. Two useful results away, while at the Domus (today expected to be sold out or almost, over 16,000 spectators expected) the success has been missing since November 29 and then came two defeats with Atalanta and Inter.
Davide Nicola relies (also) on his former players: Sebastiano Luperto in defense, especially Mattia Felici (the great revelation of the last few weeks) high on the left and Roberto Piccoli as a striker . There are also some possibilities for the other two with a past in Salento, Alessandro Deiola and Gianluca Lapadula . Both are aiming for the attacking midfielder's shirt, which could go to Gianluca Gaetano but it is not excluded that he sees another player who would lead to a change from the 4-2-3-1. Certain, however, the return of Yerry Mina in defense after missing the match at the Meazza . Between the posts Elia Caprile is instead fresh from his great debut at San Siro. In Lecce, the other great former player Marco Giampaolo has relaunched the Giallorossi fresh from a fundamental victory at Empoli: a heavy trident with Pierotti, Krstović and Tete Morente is possible.
The referee will be Juan Luca Sacchi from the Macerata section . On unionesarda.it, as usual, the live broadcast of the match while on Radiolina (connection from 2.30 pm) it will be possible to listen to the live radio commentary by Lele Casini from Unipol Domus and follow the post-match with all the comments . These are the probable lineups for Cagliari-Lecce.
Cagliari (4-2-3-1): Caprile; Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Obert; Makoumbou, Adopo; Zortea, Gaetano, Felici; Piccoli. Coach: Nicola.
Lecce (4-3-3): Falcone; Guilbert, Baschirotto, Jean, Dorgu; Coulibaly, Pierret, Helgason; Pierotti, Krstović, Tete Morente. Coach: Giampaolo.
