Cagliari vs Inter predictions and betting tips: Nerazzurri to win in Sardinia

Cagliari vs Inter is a Serie A clash at the Unipol Domus on Sunday, with the visitors heavily fancied after a thumping opener.

Cagliari won at Parma while Inter thrashed Monza, and the Nerazzurri are strong favourites. Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record below.

Premium Tips

Andy is with Inter, whose quality should prove too much despite Cagliari’s winning start.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Inter to win and over 2.5 goals13/10Inter opened the season with a rampant 4-1 win over Monza, a real statement of attacking intent, and travel to Sardinia “brimming with confidence” as heavy favourites. The head-to-head trend backs up the goals angle too: Inter have won four of the last five meetings with Cagliari, several by multiple-goal margins including 3-0 and 0-3 scorelines. Cagliari’s own battling 1-0 win at Parma shows they won’t simply sit back, and with the draft’s own score prediction of Cagliari 0-3 Inter, a clear-cut home defeat with goals to spare looks the logical outcome against a “different level” opponent.
Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram and Hakan Calhanoglu over 0.5 shots on target12/5With Inter expected to dominate possession and territory against a Cagliari side that, while spirited, is up against “the big guns,” all three of Inter’s attacking outlets should see plenty of the ball in advanced areas. Martinez and Thuram lead the line as the focal scoring threats, while Calhanoglu regularly gets shots away from deeper positions and set pieces. Given Inter’s 4-1 demolition of Monza already showed their attacking output in full flow, needing just one shot on target apiece from three key contributors is a modest ask, making this a sensible way to stack value around the same expected dominant-away-win script.
