Inter can begin the Scudetto preparations after going 11 points clear, but Radja Nainggolan’s Cagliari is desperate to avoid relegation. Read our reasons for Inter vs Cagliari prediction and betting tips.
The Nerazzurri notched up a 10th consecutive Serie A victory with the midweek rescheduled 2-1 win over Sassuolo and it’ll take something truly remarkable now to stop them from taking the title. Antonio Conte hit back at those who accuse him of using catenaccio tactics at Inter, pointing out this is a ‘4-2-4’ system. The coach has become increasingly irritated at the comments his team is boring, negative, and doesn’t play beautiful football. They are 11 points clear at the top of the Serie A table thanks to yesterday’s 2-1 win over Sassuolo, a victory achieved with just 30 percent possession at San Siro. However, Conte hit back on Instagram, posting a video of Romelu Lukaku’s opening goal. It had a simple message: ‘4-2-4’ The video shows that Milan Skriniar moves up down the right from the original three-man defense, Christian Eriksen stays in the center and the two wing-backs sprint forward with the two strikers.
The Nerazzurri were again absolutely clinical in their 2-1 victory, having just 30 percent possession at San Siro, but beating Sassuolo 2-1 with Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez counter-attacks. Lautaro Martinez said after the game that Inter had a ‘talk’ at the midway stage of the season and changed gear. “We needed to take another step up if we wanted to have a season as real protagonists and challenge for the Scudetto,” Conte told the media. “We had to become more determined, more focused in every situation, as well as more resilient. There are games like today where we can be up against teams with no pressure and if we are more clinical, we can score five or six goals. Sassuolo kept it open to the end, even if they scored only when Milan Skriniar was off the field.''
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, A Bastoni; Hakimi, Gagliardini, Brozovic, Eriksen, Young; Lukaku, Lautaro Martinez
Suspended: Barella
Injured: Perisic, Kolarov
Cagliari had a boost when Leonardo Semplici took over from Eusebio Di Francesco, but that seems to have dissipated now, with three consecutive defeats. Alessio Cragno caught COVID-19, so Simone Aresti steps into the net. It’s surprising the Sardinians are in the bottom three with the likes of ex-Inter stars Diego Godin and Nainggolan in the squad. Leonardo Semplici said Cagliari has ‘our destiny in our own hands’ after another setback against Hellas Verona. ‘We must think about our path’. The Casteddu created enough chances to give Ivan Juric’s men problems, but it ended in a 2-0 defeat at the Sardegna Arena and the situation is getting worse for Semplici’s men. “I don’t believe in luck and bad luck,” Semplici told the media. “I believe in the abilities of the lads. “Even with a loss, the game was right in terms of mentality. We create a lot. Only through these performances, you can turn things around. Let’s hope the wind changes.”
But it was another defeat and a chance for Torino the create a gap down to Cagliari in the relegation zone when they face Juventus tonight. “The defeat weighs a lot,” Semplici continued. “But when I arrived, I expected such a situation. We create a lot but then unfortunately the little we give away punished us. There’s a disappointment, we miss the most important thing, which is the result. We have to believe in it and be convinced of the work we do during the week. That’s the only way we can get out of it.”
Cagliari (3-5-2): Aresti; Klavan, Godin, Rugani; Nandez, Marin, Nainggolan, Duncan, Lykogiannis; Simeone, Joao Pedro
Suspended: None
Injured: Rog, Ceppitelli, Sottil, Cragno, Tramoni

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
