Relegation-threatened Cagliari welcome Hellas Verona to the Sardegna Arena on Saturday in a round 29 Serie A clash.The Sardinians are in 18th place, a point behind Torino who have a game in hand. Verona, meanwhile, are comfortably in mid-table, with 38 points enough for them to occupy ninth place.Cagliari's 3-1 loss to Juventus at home midway through March was expected.
