Comments and predictions for Cagliari vs Inter Milan: Spectacular comeback

Latest Cagliari vs Inter Milan squad information

Inter could have almost their full squad this weekend, with the exception of reserve striker Ange-Yoan Bonny, who remains doubtful due to an ankle injury.

That means Marcus Thuram (current top scorer), young talent Francesco Pio Esposito and captain Lautaro Martinez will compete for the two starting berths up front. Lautaro has recovered from a back injury and is likely to return to the starting line-up – he scored 11 goals in 11 Serie A games against Cagliari.

For the home side, Belotti will continue to lead the attack after his brilliant performance last weekend. Sebastiano Esposito – Pio’s brother and currently playing for Cagliari on loan from Inter – is also a candidate to start to support Belotti.

Coach Pisacane will have key players such as centre-back Yerry Mina and goalkeeper Elia Caprile back after rotating in the cup tie. However, Cagliari will still be without Zito Luvumbo, while right-back Gabriele Zappa picked up an injury this week and is in doubt.

Latest predicted lineup for Cagliari vs Inter Milan

Cagliari:

Caprile; Palestra, Mina, Luperto, Obert; Adopo, Prati, Deiola; Folorunsho; Esposito, Belotti

Inter Milan:

Sommer; Akanji, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Sucic, Dimarco; Thuram, Martinez

Latest Cagliari vs Inter Milan football review

After a flying start to the Champions League – picking up all three points against Ajax in their opening game – Inter began their Serie A form up a notch last weekend.

After a 5-0 demolition of Torino on the opening day, Cristian Chivu's team surprisingly lost to Udinese at home, then dropped the victory in the dramatic Derby d'Italia match with Juventus (lost 3-4).

The pressure was therefore on for a game against Sassuolo – a team that usually causes problems. However, Inter took all three points at the San Siro: Federico Dimarco opened the scoring in the first half, and a late own goal seemed to have decided the result, before Sassuolo pulled one back and Domenico Berardi shot just wide.

Now, Inter continue to travel away from home – where they have won only 3 of their last 10 Serie A matches this year. A victory in Sardinia is essential to avoid being left too far behind by Napoli – who have won all their matches since the start of the season.

Head-to-head history is on Inter's side, as they have won all five of their last visits to Cagliari. However, since Chivu replaced Simone Inzaghi, many things have changed.

Coach Fabio Pisacane (Cagliari) – August 8, 2025

Cagliari have lost 12 of their last 15 meetings with Inter, with their last Serie A win over Nerazzurri coming in 2019.

However, they come into this game in impressive form: back-to-back Serie A wins over Parma and Lecce, plus a 4-1 win over Frosinone in the Coppa Italia on Tuesday, which puts them in a last-16 tie against Napoli.

With 7 points, Cagliari are even above Inter. The attack has also improved: new signing Andrea Belotti scored a double last weekend, then 4 other players scored in the cup.

It's been over four years since the Rossoblu last won three consecutive Serie A games, and now they have the chance to repeat it.
