And Cagliari coach Davide Nicola could have a couple notable absences to work around.

Defender Yerry Mina is a major doubt for Saturday’s match.

The former Barcelona, Everton, and Fiorentina defender has been a rock at the back for Cagliari this season.

However, Mina’s fitness is doubtful for Saturday.

Therefore, FCIN report, it is likely to be Polish international defender Mateusz Wieteska who fills in for Mina in the Cagliari backline.

Meanwhile, forward Zito Luvumbo is also a major doubt.

Therefore, FCIN reports, Michel Adopo and Antoine Makoumbou are likely to start as attacking midfielders behind striker Roberto Piccoli.
