Hellas Verona will endeavour to climb out of the Serie A relegation zone when they travel to Stadio Luigi Ferraris to face Genoa on Friday night.
While the hosts have only won one of their last five top-flight matches, the visitors are seeking to end a 10-game winless run in all competitions.
Albert Gudmundsson scored his third goal in as many games to cancel out Nicolas Viola's opener, but it was Cagliari who had the last laugh as Gabriele Zappa arrowed a strike into the bottom corner 20 minutes from time to help the hosts claim all three points.
Alberto Gilardino's side have lost three of their last four Serie A matches and have subsequently slipped down to 14th in the table, just three points above Friday's opponents Verona who occupy the third and final spot in the relegation zone.
Genoa will welcome a return to Stadio Luigi Ferraris where they have picked up seven of their 11 Serie A points this season, admirably accumulating one point in a 2-2 draw with Scudetto champions Napoli before claiming maximum points in 4-1 and 1-0 victories over Roma and Salernitana respectively.
