Cagliari preview: Struggling Sardinians

Cagliari come into this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting just six points and three places clear of the bottom three and the relegation places – in very poor form under the management of young coach Fabio Pisacane.

The Sardinians have succumbed to three successive defeats ahead of this one, coming into the visit of Napoli with a 3-1 loss to Pisa at the Arena Garibaldi in Tuscany in a game in which Cagliari were blown away.

Napoli preview: Finding form

Defending champions Napoli remain tucked inside the top three and look set to ensure they remain in the UEFA Champions League for next season as the pragmatic Antonio Conte continues to find a way.

The Partenopei made it three wins on the bounce last weekend as goals from Rasmus Hojlund and Matteo Politano helped the Neapolitans come from a goal down to defeat Lecce at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

Cagliari vs Napoli prediction

Cagliari have played some more progressive stuff this season and they remain in a strong position to comfortably avoid relegation down to Serie B – but they aren’t yet safe. Napoli have been hard-fought in their victories of late but performances have been improving and another low-scoring clash seems likely, albeit one in which the visitors again find a route to three points.

Cagliari vs Napoli tip: Napoli to win & under 3.5 goals
