Before the two-week break, an invigorated Roma easily defeated Ranieri's team, giving the 2016 Premier League champion manager time to get ready for the match in round nine.

The visitors from the bottom of the table have only scored once in four away games, have lost three straight games, and have let up seven goals in losses to Bologna (2-1), Atalanta BC (2-0), and Fiorentina (3-0).

The seasoned Rossoblu manager will hope his club performs better against a team with a comparable technical skill set because those games were against far more organized teams.

Cagliari's most recent trip to the Arechi in May 2022 resulted in a 1-1 tie, which is usual for the hosts given their unrivaled propensity for drawing games.

Salernitana's Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi is questionable, and Vincenzo Fiorillo is anticipated to remain absent until the beginning of next month.

Inzaghi anticipates switching up the formation and may opt for a 4-3-2-1 in place of multiple iterations of Sousa's back three.

Due to their injuries, Pantelis Chatzidiakos, Gianluca Lapadula, and Marko Rog are not anticipated to play on Sunday. They will not be available until November. Zito Luvumbo is questionable, therefore the forward's status for this weekend's game is uncertain.

Salernitana and Cagliari, two of this season's three teams in Serie A without a win, will meet in the upcoming round nine match at the Arechi Stadium. Salernitana made a managerial change by parting ways with Paulo Sousa after a 3-0 loss to Monza before the international break, while Claudio Ranieri remains in charge despite Cagliari's fourth consecutive league defeat.

Salernitana's fifth Serie A loss this season prompted them to bring in Filippo Inzaghi as their new manager, replacing Sousa on October 10. The team has struggled both in attack and defense, ranking third-worst in terms of goals scored (four) and goals conceded (17) in the league.

Inzaghi has had some time during the international break to work on improving the team's performance on both ends of the pitch. Their previous season ended on a positive note with a seven-game unbeaten run, including four wins, showing their potential at the Arechi Stadium when they're at their best.

A victory in his first game in charge would be a welcome start for Inzaghi, but he's aware that it won't be an easy task on Sunday. On the other hand, Cagliari might feel confident about their chances of securing their first win since their return to the division as they head into this weekend's match.

Salernitana is set to host Cagliari at the Stadio Arechi in a crucial Serie A match at the bottom of the table this Sunday. The home team currently occupies the second-to-last position with just three points from eight games, while the visitors find themselves at the very bottom with only two points. Salernitana has suffered three consecutive losses, and Cagliari has lost four games in a row.

In their previous outing, Salernitana suffered a 3-0 defeat against Monza, failing to score for the fifth time this season. On the other hand, Cagliari faced a 4-1 home defeat against Roma in their last match.

Salernitana recently appointed Filippo Inzaghi as their head coach in hopes of securing their first win of the season. Both teams are eager for a change in fortune during the upcoming international break.

These two teams have met 30 times in various competitions, with only four meetings in Serie A. Cagliari has the upper hand with 13 wins, while Salernitana has nine wins, and seven matches have ended in draws. Their most recent encounters in the 2021-22 Serie A season resulted in 1-1 draws. Notably, Salernitana hasn't won any of their four Serie A meetings against Cagliari, with two losses and two draws.

Salernitana has collected two of their three points at home this season, while Cagliari has lost three of their four away games in Serie A, failing to score in three of those matches. Additionally, Salernitana has won only one of their last nine meetings against Cagliari.

Salernitana has endured a tough stretch, losing five of their last six league matches and scoring just one goal while conceding 14 times. They have also failed to win any of their last five meetings with Cagliari, scoring just three goals while conceding 10.

As for player availability, Inzaghi does not have any major absentees for his first game in charge, although Vincenzo Fiorillo is sidelined with an arm injury, and Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi faces a late fitness test.

Cagliari has scored one goal less than Salernitana (3) but has also conceded one goal less (16) in their eight games so far. They are winless in their last nine away games in Serie A and may face challenges in this match. Claudio Ranieri, Cagliari's coach, faces injury concerns as Simone Aresti, Marko Rog, and Pantelis Chatzidiakos are confirmed absentees, while Gianluca Lapadula is undergoing a late fitness test.

On Saturday afternoon, the stakes will be significant at Stadio Arechi as the two lowest-ranking teams in Serie A face each other in Gameweek No. 9. Salernitana, after a dismal start to the season, decided to part ways with Paulo Sousa during the international break.

Taking his place is Filippo Inzaghi, who is set to make his debut as Salernitana's head coach in this match against Cagliari. The home team has only managed to secure three points in the first eight rounds and has failed to score more than one goal in their last six league matches.

It will be intriguing to see if the "new manager bounce" effect comes into play. Cagliari provides an ideal opportunity for such a resurgence as they are the only team worse off than Salernitana after the initial eight rounds of the season.

The visiting team has only accumulated two points this season and has scored no more than three goals in eight matches. Additionally, Cagliari has conceded at least three goals in each of their last three league games, although it's important to note that they faced tough opponents like AC Milan, Fiorentina, and Roma during that period.

Cagliari can draw some confidence from their recent track record against Salernitana, as they have remained undefeated in their last five encounters.

In the most recent meetings between these teams during the 2021/22 Serie A season, there were two 1-1 draws, and only one of the previous four matches between Salernitana and Cagliari saw three or more goals scored.
