They are also preparing for Daniele De Rossi’s debut on the touchline, following his suspension two weeks ago.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Sardinia, the head-to-head record between the two teams stands at 40 matches: 22 home wins for Cagliari (the most recent a 2–1 victory in Serie A 2023/24), 10 draws (the last a 1–1 in Serie A last season) and 8 Genoa wins (the most recent a 3–2 success in Serie A 2021/22).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the three-points-for-a-win era (since the 1994/95 season), a 0–0 draw in this fixture has occurred only once, in Serie A 2022/23.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cagliari are one of the three teams in Serie A 2025/26 to have used all the substitutions available so far (55 out of 55), along with Bologna and Torino.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the first time this season, Genoa come into the match on the back of two positive results: a 2–1 away win at Sassuolo and a 2–2 home draw against Fiorentina.
