Italy Serie A: Cagliari - Atalanta
New Cagliari coach Zdenek Zeman will doubtless be pleased with an opening day point at Sassuolo, both teams on the scoresheet will probably be a common occurence under the attack minded Zeman, who is highly unlikely to divert from his beloved 4-3-3 under any circumstances. He has named a very attack minded squad today , boosted by the return of star player Victor Ibarbo who was sidelined last week, he is very strong and unbelievably quick and very much a footballer to thrive under Zeman. So too is Marco Sau, he scored just once in his first 13 starts last season, but is already off the mark this time round and has provided an assist in two of his last three starts against Atalanta.
Hosts will be without defensive midfielder Sebastian Eriksson who has been very injury prone since arriving from IFK and he looks set to miss another couple of months, but are otherwise in good shape. This is the third season running that Cagliari have started their home campaign against the team from Bergamo, two years ago this ended 1-1 and last season the hosts edged home 2-1 and a home win with both scoring again seems a very likely outcome and is available at circa 4.0.
Atalanta look a little weaker this season having sold Andrea Consigli, Marko Livaja and Giacomo Bonaventura, although Alejandro Gomez from Metalist Kharkiv has been brought in as a direct replacement for the latter, they are missing a few, now largely fringe players, but given how Zemen and the hosts will play, perhaps experienced central defender Guglielmo Stendardo will be missed most, they have won just 2 from 13 (8 defeats) when he plays 30 minutes or less and that record is far worse on the road when they are 0-1-6 in his absence.
