Portuguese coach Paulo Sousa's last match at the helm of Salernitana was a 3:0 away defeat to Monza. Before that, Salerno lost 4:0 at home to Inter. So, given the 0:7 in two meetings, the resignation of the head coach was not a surprise. After eight championship rounds, Salerno has only three points and no wins.
As for Filippo Inzaghi, he even had time to work with Milan in the early days of his coaching career and later led Benevento in Serie A. The legendary striker's last job was with Reggina, with whom he finished seventh in Serie B.
Cagliari
The Sardinians are the only team in the starting line-up with fewer points than Salernitana. Cagliari closes the standings with two points and six defeats in eight games.
Cagliari has not yet changed their coach, but Claudio Ranieri's status is certainly higher than Sousa's in Salerno. The team's problems have more to do with a weak roster than tactical miscalculations. In the run-up to the meeting with Salernitana, the islanders had a busy schedule and failed four matches - to Atalanta (0:2), Milan (1:3), Fiorentina (0:3), and Roma (1:4).
Expert Betting Tips
Cagliari faced almost all of the top teams in the first eight rounds and lost. In addition to Milan, Roma, Fiorentina, and Atalanta, they fell to Inter and were only beaten by Bologna in the end. At the same time, Claudio Ranieri's team was at least as good in the games against Udinese and Torino, which also ended 0:0.
Salernitana faced Roma and Inter, but that didn't help them get just one point more than Cagliari. We believe that in the upcoming match, even considering the change of coach, Salerno will struggle to cope with Cagliari. The islanders are not badly organized and still look great in matches with everyone but top clubs.
