Napoli form and stats

Perfect Serie A season at home so far for Napoli 2 wins from 2 appearances. The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of five straight victories regardless of arena.

The Napoli goalkeeper David Ospina Ramirez is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 260 minutes without conceding a goal in the Serie A.

Napoli are returning here after visiting Sampdoria in a Serie A game and winning with a 4-0 scoreline. Piotr Zieliński, Victor Osimhen (2) and Fabián Ruiz scored the goal(s). As mentioned above, Napoli "killed" Sampdoria in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. The striker Lorenzo Insigne was declared "man of the match" for Napoli with a rating of 8.65/10. Insigne signed up for two assists, hit five key passes and had 35 successful passes (of 39 total).

In the game before, an away victory match versus Udinese with a 4-0 scoreline.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Spartak Moskva are coming to town in four days.

At Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, Napoli has the goal stats of 4-1 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

Still no away game victory in the Serie A for Cagliari with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

Home advantage was not enough for Cagliari in their previous game, as they lost their Serie A-match, hosting Empoli, 0-2. Nahitan Nández got a match rating of 7.33 in that game, top player of the team. Nández hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Lazio that ended 2-2.
