Inter Milan vs Cagliari Predictions
Inter’s scoring run meets a fragile defensive stretch
Inter have scored at least twice in eight of their last 11 Serie A matches, and recent scorelines of 5-2 against Roma and 4-3 against Como point to a high-output pattern. Those results sit alongside a five-game run without a clean sheet, which keeps both ends of the pitch active across this stretch.
At San Siro, that mix tends to stretch games. Inter’s wider record shows just one league defeat since November 23, with two of their five losses coming in the opening three weeks, and that consistency keeps their scoring level high across home fixtures. Even during a brief three-match winless spell, the attacking return did not drop away.
Cagliari bring a quieter scoring profile but still contribute. They ended an eight-match winless run with a 1-0 victory over Cremonese and have scored in five of their last six league games. At the same time, they have not scored more than once in any of their last nine Serie A outings, which limits their ceiling but not their ability to get on the board.
Nine Inter wins in the last 11 league meetings with Cagliari reinforce the direction of this fixture, while the recent run of conceded goals keeps the total elevated. Given those combined trends, backing Inter Milan to win and over 3.5 match goals appeals at 2.60.

A familiar scoreline shape in Inter home wins
Inter’s recent matches have regularly landed in multi-goal margins while still allowing a reply, as shown in the 5-2 and 4-3 wins that followed their short winless patch. That sequence aligns with their five straight league games without a clean sheet, where control of results has remained but shutouts have not.
Cagliari’s scoring range adds a narrow band to the expected outcome. They have found the net in five of the last six fixtures but have not scored more than once across their previous nine Serie A games. That single-goal ceiling shapes the likely margin rather than the result itself.
Head-to-head history leans the same way, with Inter winning nine of the last 11 league meetings, often with a clear gap on the scoreboard. A one-goal return from Cagliari alongside Inter’s consistent two-plus scoring line fits the current run of results without stretching beyond it.
Inter Milan 3-1 could be worth a look at 11.00.
