Cagliari vs Torino Match Preview: Serie A Clash on 17 May 2026

Match at Unipol Domus, Cagliari, on 17 May 2026 in Serie A Regular Season - 37. Cagliari enter the round in 16th place on 37 points, while Torino sit 12th with 44 points.

Cagliari availability

Cagliari face multiple confirmed absences.

  • M. Felici (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • R. Idrissi (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • J. Liteta (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.
  • L. Pavoletti (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • J. Pedro (Yellow Cards) is sidelined through suspension.

In addition, L. Mazzitelli (Calf Injury) is doubtful. Creative hub S. Esposito, the team’s leading assister with 5 assists and 6 goals, is available and will be key to supplying the attack.

Torino availability

Torino are without midfielder G. Gineitis (Yellow Cards), who is sidelined due to suspension. Three players are carrying knocks: Z. Aboukhlal (Muscle Injury) is doubtful, F. Anjorin (Hip Injury) is doubtful, and A. Ismajli (Muscle Injury) is doubtful. Top scorer G. Simeone, who has 11 league goals, is available to lead the line.

Impact summary

Cagliari lose depth in midfield and attack, particularly target man Pavoletti and suspended defender J. Pedro, which may reduce their penalty-box presence. Torino’s main attacking output remains intact with Simeone fit, but any absence among their doubtful attacking options would slightly limit rotation rather than core firepower.
