Cagliari-Napoli is a match of the fourth day of Serie A and is played on Sunday at 6 p.m.: odds, prediction, live TV and streaming.
If against Bologna, seven days earlier, Napoli had played an essentially perfect game, smashing 3 goals past Vincenzo Italiano’s team, in the match against Parma Antonio Conte’s men had to sweat the fateful seven shirts to get the better of the ducali, overturned only in the last minutes of the game.
The Azzurri, in fact, avoided what would have been the second defeat of the season in full recovery (2-1): first Lukaku and then Anguissa made the “Maradona” explode with joy, but the real turning point to the match was the expulsion of Parma goalkeeper Suzuki a quarter of an hour from the end, forcing his coach Pecchia, who had finished the changes, to deploy between the posts a movement player (Delprato). The aspects to be improved remain many, and Conte knows it well, but for the partenopei it was essential to give continuity to the success with the felsinei in order to definitively file away the ugly defeat suffered on the debut in Verona. Now the Salento coach also expects a big hand from the other newcomers (Neres, McTominay, Gilmour), who will find more space in the upcoming fixtures. Napoli this weekend will travel to Cagliari, against a team that has just cashed its first defeat of the season, losing 1-0 in the direct clash with Lecce. First disappointment for Davide Nicola, who in the previous two matches had avoided defeat at home to Roma (0-0) and Como (1-1).
Cagliari-Napoli: the latest lineup news
In Cagliari’s defense, Mina will regain a starting shirt: the Colombian, fully recovered, will go between Zappa and Luperto. Doubts, on the other hand, about Prati’s regularity in the direction: the midfielder has not yet recovered after the muscle problem suffered in Lecce. Everything is okay instead for the most expected ex, Gaetano, who returned to Sardinia just in the last days of the market.
On the other side, Conte may field Lukaku from 1′, who will be supported by Kvaratskhelia and David Neres, ahead of Politano. Possible relay in the game between Anguissa and McTominay, while on the left Olivera is favored over Spinazzola.

The Prediction
Cagliari hasn’t beaten Napoli since 2019 and, more generally, that’s the Sardinians’ only win in the last 26 previous matches in the top flight. The two-week stop might have done the Parthenopeans some good, and in our opinion they should come out on top in a match of less than 4 goals overall: so far, in fact, the Rossoblù attack has been firing blanks (only one goal scored in three games).
The probable lineups of Cagliari-Napoli
CAGLIARI (3-5-2): Scuffet; Zappa, Mina, Luperto; Azzi, Marin, Prati, Gaetano, Augello; Luvumbo, Piccoli.
NAPOLI (3-4-2-1): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno; Mazzocchi, Zambo Anguissa, Lobotka, Olivera; David Neres, Kvaratskhelia; Lukaku.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 0-1
