Napoli – Cagliari Prediction Serie A, Matchday 2 on Saturday, 08/30/25 at 8:45 p.m.
Napoli started the new season last week – as they do almost every year – with a Serie A opening victory. New signing Kevin De Bruyne made a perfect start with his goal to make it 2-0.
According to my Napoli Cagliari prediction, the Neapolitans’ winning streak will continue unabated! The Sardinians are simply not good enough to win at the foot of Vesuvius for the first time since 2019.
If you are thinking about taking advantage of the first-class Merkur Bets welcome bonus, then there is no way around betting on another SSC victory this Saturday.
My Napoli Cagliari tip: HT/FT SSC/SSC
These are the arguments for my tip:
- Napoli won both of last year’s matches against Cagliari in exactly this pattern!
- Cagliari has not won any of its last 9 matches!
- Since New Year’s Day, Cagliari has won only 1 away game against a club that will still be in Serie A in 2025/26!
Napoli vs. Cagliari AI predictions:
I’m actually quite confident about this, but it can’t hurt to request a Napoli Cagliari AI prediction—especially when the computer-generated suggestions seem so reasonable!
1st goal: Scott McTominay at odds of around 6.00 makes sense because the Scot not only scored the first goal against Sassuolo, but also scored the first goal in numerous games throughout the 2024/25 season.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Napoli win |
Draw |
Cagliari win |
| 75.2% |
20% |
4.8% |
Napoli win without conceding a goal at odds of around 1.90 also has my support. After all, SSC won both of last year’s matches against the Sardinians with scores of 2-0 and 4-0.
Napoli to score over 1.5 goals at 1.50 in any good sports betting app is the third suggestion in the bunch that gets a thumbs up from me.
In their last six Serie A home games, the Neapolitans have scored at least two goals – even when teams like Florence or Milan were visiting!
What you need to consider when betting on Napoli vs. Cagliari
- Napoli have not lost a single competitive game at home in 2025.
- Scott McTominay scored the opening goal against Sassuolo last weekend and in the last meeting with Cagliari.
- There have been over 3.5 goals in only 2 of the Sardinians’ last 12 Serie A away games.
- Napoli won both Serie A matches against Cagliari in 2024/25 without conceding a goal and after leading at halftime.
