Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Napoli Win – 1.53
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Napoli -1 Goals Handicap -1.84
Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Anytime Correct Score 0-2 – 2.38
Napoli Win
67% is the chance for a Napoli win who are undefeated in their last five trips and won the last two. Cagliari on the other side have one win at the Sardegna Arena in the league and lost all their games against the top four.
Napoli -1 Goals Handicap
On nine occasions Napoli won their matches with a margin of two or more goals four of them while playing on the road. With their current form and scoring record, it is hard to see the Blues not covering the -1 handicap.
Anytime Correct Score 0-2
Napoli are one of the dominant forces in Serie A this season and that is visible in their games. Notably, during eight fixtures the Blues were up by a two-goal lead and went on to win. On Monday we predict Insigne and co to have a similar performance.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Cagliari vs Napoli
Cagliari are experiencing their second-worst campaign in six years and must react quickly before it’s too late. Last season the Islanders managed to escape relegation by finishing 16th.
However, Cagliari still will play all of the top-four teams and all three clubs that are currently bottom three. Obviously, the Islanders are having a horrible season defensively with an average of three goals per game conceded per home game.
Offensively the situation is not brighter for Walter Mazzani’s team. To point out, the Rossoblu have an average of one goal per game and failed to score in 36% of their fixtures.
Luciano Spaletti will be pleased with his team’s performance against Inter in the previous round. Surely, the Blues would have preferred to win but a draw has kept them in the hunt for the Scudetto.
Notably, Napoli beat all bottom five teams this season on eight occasions with five clean sheets and conceding three goals. They are on a six-match undefeated run drawing with Juventus and Inter in the process and winning the other four.
Cagliari vs Napoli Prediction
This could easily be a very important game for both teams as they chase their different ambitions in the league. Napoli find themselves just two points off the lead and need to maintain their form and winning mentality to stay in contention for their first Scudetto since 1990.
It won’t be easy against a Cagliari side battling for survival and are undefeated in three matches. Nonetheless, Spaletti has better players at his disposal who can take the game to their side anytime. We predict Napoli to win.
Safe Bet
Cagliari are averaging nine total corners per game this season and Napoli’s average is very close at 8.76. In addition, at home the Islanders are winning in general 4.83 corners while playing at the Sardegna Arena. While Napoli typically win four pr game when playing away. To conclude we predict under 10.5 corners for this fixture.
Quick Rich
In their last four away games, Napoli were leading at the half by the score of 0-1. Overall, the Blues led at halftime in 12 of 25 matches. With odds of 3.39, we consider the halftime correct score of 0-1 to be a good way for a quick profit.
Cagliari vs Napoli First Goalscorer
Victor Osimhen scored for Napoli six times in Serie A this term. Incidentally, four of those goals were the first goal of the match. The Nigerian seems to be back on form and we expect him to open the scoring account in Sardegna on Monday.
