AS Roma will be looking to get back to winning ways when they travel to face a struggling Cagliari side at the Unipol Domus on Sunday in Serie A.
The Rossoblu are under severe pressure to turn their season around and are currently near the bottom of the league after failing to secure a victory in their last five games. Their recent game ended in a 1-1 draw in the Coppa Italia, but they went on to lose (10-9) on penalties.
Conversely, the Giallorossi have been in excellent league form, securing four wins in their last five Serie A matches, although they did suffer a slender 1-0 home defeat to rivals Napoli in their last match, ending their four-game winning streak.

Player to watch: Matias Soule
Matias Soule is the key player to focus upon, representing the most consistent goalscoring threat in Roma’s team. The attacking midfielder has displayed excellent form this season, currently leading the team in combined goal contributions.
This season, Soule has scored four goals and provided two assists in the league, showing his dual threat in the final third. His ability to link midfield and attack will play a key role in ensuring the visitors secure the necessary goals for a crucial victory.
