If recent trends are anything to go by, Inter should not have too much trouble in Sardinia. The Nerazzurri have won six consecutive away games against Cagliari and have not conceded a goal in their last three visits to the island. Add to that the fact that Lautaro Martínez has scored 12 goals against today's opponents. In Serie A history, only Francesco Totti (14 goals) and Ciro Immobile (13) have found the net more often against Cagliari, meaning Inter's captain has a chance to catch or even overtake them today. Cagliari have made a good start to the season, beating Parma away thanks to a spectacular goal from youngster Alessandro Romano, who has, incidentally, chosen to represent Italy rather than Switzerland, having previously played for the Swiss youth teams.Champions' rhapsody: Ruthless Inter blitz second half to secure first winThere should not be any major changes to the hosts' lineup compared with the one that took the field at the Tardini, while Inter are expected to make two possible changes to their starting XI. The first concerns Pavard, who is tipped to start, although Akanji and Bisseck are also in contention for the position between the Frenchman and Bastoni. Akanji made a couple of rookie mistakes against Monza, while Bisseck was among the best performers, so it would not be surprising to see the German replace the Swiss international in the starting lineup. The second potential change in Chivu's side could see Sucic replace Zielinski. Everyone else is expected to retain their place. Marcus Thuram is also back at Chivu's disposal, but it appears that Pio Esposito is currently Inter's coach's first choice. Esposito scored his first Serie A goal against Cagliari last season, in the fifth round. This season, one of Italy's brightest young talents opened his scoring account in the very first game.BETTING GUIDE: Napoli vs Como, match preview, team news and predictionJust how strong Inter are can be seen from the players expected to be on the bench today: Provedel, Bisseck (Akanji), De Winter, Carlos Augusto, Luis Henrique, Zielinski, Diouf, Stankovic, Mkhitaryan, Thuram and Bonny. In other words, a team that would itself be a serious contender to win the Scudetto. The hosts will be without Idrissi and Trepier, while Inter have traveled to Sardinia without Spence. The assessment is that the English full-back will need another two weeks before he is ready to make his debut.SERIE A – MATCHDAY 2FridayMilan – Venezia 2-0 (0-0)/Ramos 69, Halhal 89 og/SaturdayFiorentina – Frosinone 0-3 (0-2)/Raimondo 26, 68, Bracaglia 38/Monza – Udinese 2-3 (1-3)/Colpani 37, Varela 63 – Piotrowski 32, Kamara 45, Ekkelenkamp 45+3/Sassuolo – Torino 2-1 (1-1)/Volpato 32, Berardi 78 – Comuzzo 45+2/Juventus – Parma 2-0 (0-0)/Gonzalez 63, Koopmeiners 88/Sunday19.30: (2.50) Napoli (3.15) Como (3.00)21.45: (8.00) Cagliari (4.40) Inter (1.43)21.45: (2.05) Lazio (3.10) Genoa (4.05)Monday19.30: (7.00) Lecce (3.90) Roma (1.53)21.45: (1.95) Atalanta (3.50) Bologna (3.90)***odds are subject to change***
