Serie A 2025-2026: Napoli-Cagliari, the likely lineups

Home debut for Italy’s champion Napoli at the Maradona against Cagliari: kickoff of the match valid for the second day of Serie A is scheduled for 8:45 p.m. Antonio Conte’s team scored a convincing victory in the opener against Sassuolo and now takes on the Sardinians, who drew the opener at home against Fiorentina.
With Lukaku out (but Hojlund is coming in), Lucca is still the starting center forward. Lobotka in director, on the flanks still room for Politano and McTominay with De Bruyne and Anguissa in the middle. Still bench for Lang.
Cagliari: Borrelli-Luvumbo ballot in attack with the former favored, Folorunsho and Sebastiano Esposito are the pair of trequartisti. In the median, Adopo, Prati and Deiola.
