Inter Milan
WWLDWW
Inter Milan will be looking for a repeat result of a 1-2 Serie A success versus Udinese.
In that game, Inter Milan managed 77% possession and 23 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. For Inter Milan, the scorers were Hakan Çalhanoğlu (55') and Davide Frattesi (95'). On the other side, Udinese got 3 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. Lazar Samardžić (40') scored for Udinese.
Inter Milan haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, hitting the target every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 matches.
They have hit an aggregate of 9 during that period while seeing the number of goals scored against them stand at 5. That kind of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this next game, though.
Their prior results show that Inter Milan:
- haven't been beaten in the league by Cagliari in their previous 7 matches.
- are undefeated in their last 12 league matches at home. A very good run at home.
Cagliari
DWWLDW
Cagliari will come into the clash following on from a 2-1 Serie A win to beat Atalanta in their previous outing.
In that match, Cagliari had 38% possession and 11 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. For Cagliari, the goalscorers were Tommaso Augello (42') and Nicolas Viola (88'). For their opponents, Atalanta got 7 shots at goal with 2 on target. Gianluca Scamacca (13') scored for Atalanta.
The stats don’t lie, and Cagliari have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 6 goals in all. Defensively, Cagliari just haven’t been too solid at all.
Coming into this meeting, Cagliari have not won against Inter Milan when they have played them away from home in the previous 5 matches in the league. They really have not been travelling well at all.
👥 Head to head
Checking on their past head to head meetings going back to 26/01/2020 reveals that these encounters have not been fruitful for Cagliari. They’ve not been able to come away with any wins whatsoever whereas Inter Milan have managed to find a way, getting wins in 83 per cent of those matches played.
An aggregate of 17 goals were yielded between them during those clashes, with 14 for Nerazzurri and 3 for Casteddu / Rossoblu. The average goals per game has been 2.83.
The previous league contest between these sides was Serie A match day 2 on 28/08/2023 which ended up with the score at Cagliari 0-2 Inter Milan.
On that day, Cagliari managed 34% possession and 11 attempts on goal with 2 on target.
For their opponents, Inter Milan had 17 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Denzel Dumfries (21') and Lautaro Martínez (30') scored.
The referee was Michael Fabbri.
ℹ️ Team News: Inter Milan
The Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has a full complement, with no fitness concerns at all coming into this match thanks to a completely injury-free squad available to select from. Suspended players who are serving a ban for this game are Benjamin Pavard and Lautaro Martínez.
It looks as if Nerazzurri could use a 3-5-2 system for this one, utilising Yann Sommer, Yann Aurel Bisseck, Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni, Matteo Darmian, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Federico Dimarco, Alexis Sanchez and Marcus Thuram.
📋 Team News: Cagliari
Cagliari boss Claudio Ranieri has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Andrea Petagna (Calf injury), Marco Mancosu (Knee surgery) and Leonardo Pavoletti (Ankle sprain) will miss out on this game. Players who are serving a ban and are therefore ineligible to play are Alessandro Deiola and Nahitan Nández.
We reckon that Casteddu / Rossoblu seem likely to utilise a 3-5-2 lineup, going with Simone Scuffet, Pantelis Hatzidiakos, Yerry Mina, Adam Obert, Alessandro Di Pardo, Jakub Jankto, Antoine Makoumbou, Ibrahim Sulemana, Tommaso Augello, Eldor Shomurodov and Zito Luvumbo.
🧠 Prediction
We envisage that Inter Milan will probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
However, Cagliari may well find it hard to get a goal of their own but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be pulling one back during this clash, too.
We’re therefore anticipating a pretty comfortable 3-1 victory for Inter Milan by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
