In the last match of the 26th round of Italian Serie A, we are facing two teams from the opposite side of the table, so the home team currently holds 14th place and has even 41 points less than the leading Napoli. In addition, the guests from the South of Italy are in the series of nine major victories, while their rivals from Sardinia have won only four points in the last six rounds. We should also add that the last four mutual duels between these teams ended in favour of the Napolitans.

Cagliari

However, the fans of Cagliari are particularly said that they have received eight goals in the last two defeats at home, and they have not scored any, so it will certainly be a major motive for them to finally provide a stronger resistance on Monday night to the current leaders of Serie A. Especially because they have achieved their last win three rounds ago when they played with SPAL at home, after which they played two times in a row away against Sassuolo which ended with a draw and then they lost to Chievo.

However, in addition, the team from Sardinia still has a solid eight-point advantage over the 18th SPAL, so there has not yet been any need to worry. However, they are now expecting a series of three very difficult matches, and precisely because of this, they have to show much more aggressiveness in their game against the leading Napoli, despite the fact that they still cannot count on the injured center-back Pisacane, midfielder Cigarini and striker Farias.

Probable lineups Cagliari: Cragno – Romagna, Ceppitelli, Castan – Farago, Ionita, Barella, Padoin – Joao Pedro – Sau, Pavoletti

SSC Napoli

Unlike their rivals from Sardinia, who would certainly be delighted with the draw in this match, the team of Napoli is only interested in wins, since the second-ranked Juventus still holds the connection in the fight for Scudetto because they have only one point less. And in order to cut off the dominance of the “Old Lady” at Apenines for a long time, footballers from Naples have completely disregarded all the other competitions, which is best confirmed by their recent elimination from Europa League by Leipzig.

However, coach Sarri’s players have only 3 days ago mastered this team with 2-0, while they seven days earlier lost with 3-1 on their field, so the German champion has still passed in the round of sixteen. In addition, Napoli is no longer present in the National Cup, where Atalanta is better than them, but they are simply brilliant in the championship and are in a series of seven consecutive victories. We should also add that defenders Chiriches and Ghoulam and striker Milik will not be abe to perfrom this time due to injuries.

Probable lineups SSC Napoli: Reina – Hysaj, Koulibaly, Albiol, Mario Rui – Allan, Jorginho, Hamsik – Callejon, Mertens, Insigne

Verdict:

It is obvious that the leading Napoli is a big favourite in this match against the 14th Cagliari, but given that the bookies have offered a very low quota on their victory and even a handicap, we eventually decided on a match with a lot of goals.
