2026-2027 Serie A: Cagliari vs. Frosinone, Probable Lineups

Cagliari and Frosinone face off today at 3 p.m. at the Unipol Domus in a match for the 11th round of Serie A. The Rossoblù are looking to snap a four-game losing streak, which has complicated their league campaign after an excellent start. They’ll face one of the surprise teams of the early season: Frosinone sits in sixth place with 20 points and arrives in Sardinia on the heels of victories over Lecce and Torino. The Ciociari also boast one of the league’s most prolific offenses, having scored 24 goals in the first ten matchdays.
Pisacane must deal with several absences and is expected to stick with the 4-3-2-1 formation. Up front, Mendy is the favorite to lead the line, with Maldini and Adopo behind him. The most delicate situation concerns the defense, where Obert’s suspension and Mina’s suboptimal condition could lead to the central defensive pairing of Deiola and Kofler being retained. Fadera, Nzola, and Aurelio are also unavailable.
On the other side, Alvini is expected to go with a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Birligea leading the attack in place of the injured Raimondo. Behind him will be Ghedjemis, Schmid, and Kvernadze—key players on a team that has shown great offensive effectiveness so far this season. Masini and Calò are expected to start in midfield, while Grillitsch will not be available.
