Cagliari vs Napoli Betting Tips - BTTS
A competitive contest can be expected in Sardinia as Cagliari and Napoli lock horns two weeks on from their last Serie A fixtures.
Cagliari face their first fixture in a fortnight after a disappointing 1:0 defeat at Lecce earlier this month. Still winless in three league matches played this season, Gli Isolani picked up a pair of draws against Roma and Como before their narrow away loss last time out.
Tough to beat at Unipol Stadium, Cagliari have lost only three of their last 17 home Serie A fixtures. However, a lack of wins has proven an issue, with the hosts held to draws in six of their last nine matches on home soil.
A more consistent outcome at this venue has been the BTTS selection, with 17 of their 19 previous home Serie A fixtures finishing with both teams scoring.
Napoli come into Saturday evening´s Serie A showdown in good spirits after a pair of back-to-back home victories against Bologna (3:0) and Parma (2:1) before the international break. The Gli Azzurri responded well to a disastrous 3:0 defeat at Verona in the opening weekend of the new season.
Now under the charge of Antonio Conte, Napoli will need to improve upon a poor away record which has seen them win just two of their last 13 road games in Serie A since December last year. Defensive issues saw them keep just one clean sheet in their 14 previous away Serie A fixtures, suggesting Cagliari will be confident of breaking the visitors rearguard.
Indeed, with five of the last six meetings between these sides also seeing BTTS, I´m confidently backing a similar outcome at Unipol Domus this weekend.

Napoli team news
Head coach Conte is likely to hand a first start to Belgian forward Romelu Lukaku after his match-winning substitute appearance against Parma two weeks ago. The Belgian helped his side to score twice in stoppage time to claim a 2:1 victory.
The visitors have no reported injury issues ahead of the trip to Sardinia.
