A real buzz is expected in and around Unipol Domus on Sunday afternoon as Cagliari host Napoli in the heated derby of south in Matchday No 4.
The hosts are aiming for the first win of the season, following a run of two draws and a defeat in the inaugural three games.
Cagliari produced a poor performance in a 0-1 defeat at the hands of Lecce away from home two weeks ago despite having an extra man on the pitch in the entire second half.
Cagliari have managed no more than two shots on target in the 90 minutes of play at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare in the previous round.
Napoli will come into this in much higher spirits after managing back-to-back wins.
Antonio Conte made a pair of super substitutions by introducing the likes of Romelu Lukaku and David Neres two weeks ago against Parma. The duo created a 2-1 comeback victory, launching the Partinopei to the 6th position in the Serie A table.
Cagliari vs Napoli Prediction
Napoli bounced back from the opening loss at Verona by clinching consecutive home wins. They are on the road again and it will be very interesting to see whether Conte’s men can make it three on the spin.
The Partinopei have tradition to rely on with four victories and three draws in the previous seven head-to-head encounters with Cagliari.
