In recent history, the two teams have faced each other 32 times: Cagliari has emerged victorious only four times, Napoli has won 17 matches, and 11 games have ended in a draw. Additionally, before making a prediction on Napoli vs. Cagliari, it is worth noting that their last encounter on February 21, 2023, ended in a 1-1 draw.
Napoli
Napoli has yet to make a strong impression in the championship and currently occupies the sixth position in the table after 15 rounds. Walter Mazzarri’s team is already 14 points behind the leader Inter, and the chances of retaining the title diminish with each passing round. By securing a 2-0 victory over Braga at home during the week, Napoli secured a spot in the Champions League Round of 16.

Cagliari
Cagliari had a disappointing start to the championship but is gradually finding its form. Currently, Claudio Ranieri’s team has climbed to the 16th position in the table, but the situation remains challenging, with a narrow one-point gap from the relegation zone. With a 2-1 victory over Sassuolo in the last round, Cagliari secured its third win of the season.

Prediction
Our expert pick:
Napoli has slipped to sixth place in the table, a position that clearly does not align with the champion's ambitions. After four winless matches at home, the Neapolitans are likely to be determined—Cagliari, who has not won away from home this season, is unlikely to withstand the challenge in Naples. We believe that the guests have no chance. Prediction: Asian handicap (-1.5) on Napoli. This outcome is offered at odds of 1.99. Napoli is expected to be extremely aggressive today, launching a strong attack from the first minutes. Cagliari's away performances, to put it mildly, are not impressive, and they regularly make defensive mistakes. Against the champion's attack, there are likely to be many such errors. The match should be high-scoring. Bet: Total over 2.5 goals. This outcome is offered at odds of 1.61. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.99. Promo code for registration - ODDS2WIN.
