 Cagliari with only 1 point failed to win the Serie A Week 3 game against Genoa on Sunday 12 September 2021 at the Unipol Domus in Cagliari, Italy.  Genoa win their first game this season claiming these 3 golden away points.

  • Stats before the game.  Cagliari have lost all their last three games against Genoa in the league, always with the score of 0-1: in the previous 12 Serie A matches against the Ligurians, the Sardinians had missed the goal only once, obtaining six wins, two draws and four defeats.  Genoa won their last away match against Cagliari in the league, the Grifone have never recorded two consecutive away wins against the Sardinians in Serie A.  Cagliari could remain unsuccessful in the first three league games for two consecutive seasons in Serie A, for the first time since 2008/09 – 2009/10.  Should they lose, Genoa would start the Serie A championship with three defeats in the first three matches for the second time in their history, after the 1957/58 season.  Cagliari are one of the six teams to have already scored the header in this league, while Genoa is the one that has suffered the most in this way (three).
