Impact Summary
Cagliari’s absences mainly hit their midfield rotation and attacking options from the bench, reducing flexibility rather than removing their main offensive hub, with Esposito still available. Torino retain their primary goal threat in Simeone, but the suspension of Gineitis and several doubtful midfielders could limit their control in the centre of the pitch and support lines into the final third.
