Roma have won three of the last five meetings with Cagliari, and nothing in the data suggests that trend will stop now. Our Roma vs Cagliari prediction for this Serie A fixture backs the hosts to win outright, priced at 1.34. Roma are scoring more, defending well enough, and Cagliari have just lost after three straight wins. Here is why the numbers back a home win at the Stadio Olimpico.

Roma Have Dominated This Fixture Recently

Look at the last five meetings between these two sides and a clear pattern appears. Roma have won three, Cagliari have won one, and there was a single draw. The most recent game, back in February 2026, ended 2-0 to Roma with a clean sheet. Before that, Cagliari won 1-0 in December 2025, but Roma bounced back with wins in March 2025 (1-0) and February 2024 (4-0). In four of these five games, there was a clear winner. Only one ended level, a 0-0 draw in August 2024. None of these five matches saw both teams score, which tells you these games are usually decided by one side taking control.

Roma’s Attack Is a Problem Cagliari Can’t Solve Away

Roma score 2.2 goals a game and concede 1.2. Cagliari manage only 1 goal a game on average and also concede 1.2. That gap in attacking output is the clearest reason to trust Roma here. Cagliari simply don’t score enough to expect a shock result, especially away from home against a side with this kind of firepower in front of goal.

  • Roma score 2.2 goals per game at home
  • Cagliari manage just 1 goal per game on average
  • Roma have a 60% over 2.5 rate compared to Cagliari’s 40%
  • Roma kept a clean sheet in four of the last five head-to-head meetings

Roma’s over 2.5 rate of 60% also fits the pattern of games where they take control early and add goals late. Cagliari’s BTTS rate sits at 40%, but their head-to-head record against Roma shows they rarely find the net in this specific matchup. That combination of a sharp Roma attack and a Cagliari side that struggles to score away makes a comfortable home win easy to back.

The Form Lines Are Moving in Opposite Directions

Roma’s last five results read DDLWW. Two draws and a loss opened that run, but they have won their last two matches in a row. That shows a team building something going into this game. Cagliari’s form reads WWWDL. Three straight wins looked promising, but their most recent match ended in defeat, breaking that run at the worst possible time. A team coming off a loss, with a weak away scoring record, is not in a strong position to disrupt a Roma side that is picking up pace.

Put all three points together and the picture is clear. Roma have the head-to-head edge, the better attack, and the stronger current form. At odds of 1.34, this isn’t a price that offers much value on its own, but the data lines up cleanly behind the pick.
