In an impressive display, Napoli claimed victory in Serie A Week 4 by defeating Cagliari 4-0 on Sunday, September 15, 2024, at the Unipol Stadium in Cagliari, Italy. The first half was filled with excitement and balance, but it was Di Lorenzo’s goal that set the tone for the match. The second half saw Kvaratskhelia and Lukaku score within four minutes, and Buongiorno finished things off in injury time. With this win, Napoli takes the lead in the standings and looks forward to a crucial match against Juventus next week, while Cagliari prepares to host Empoli.
Napoli got on the scoreboard first in the 18th minute when Giovanni Di Lorenzo found the back of the net with a left-footed shot aimed at the bottom right corner. Romelu Lukaku provided the assist for this goal.

3 – Romelu #Lukaku has scored and provided more than 1 assist in a single match only 3 times in his career in the top-5 European Leagues, doing so twice under Antonio Conte (v Torino on November 2020 and v Cagliari today). Trust.#CagliariNapoli pic.twitter.com/QkTvWnVj5Y

✅ Stats before the game:
Of the teams faced at least 50 times in Serie A, Cagliari is the one against which Napoli boasts the lowest percentage of defeats in the top division: 19% (14 defeats in 74 matches, 33 Neapolitan victories and 27 draws complete the picture).
Cagliari have won only one of their last 26 games against Napoli in Serie A (8D, 17P): 1-0 away on 25 September 2019, with Rolando Maran on the bench (goal by Lucas Castro); the last home success of the rossoblù against the azzurri in the competition dates back to 19 April 2009, under the management of Massimiliano Allegri (2-0).
Napoli have won six of their last eight away games against Cagliari in Serie A – scoring an average of 2.6 goals per game in the process – although the two most recent games ended in a draw; the last time the Neapolitans drew three away games in a row against the Sardinians in the competition dates back to March 1976.
Cagliari have drawn six of their last nine home games in Serie A (2W, 1D) and have only kept a clean sheet once in that period, in the 0-0 draw against Roma on matchday one of this season; furthermore, the Sardinians could record three home draws in a row in the competition for the first time since the first three home games of the 2018/19 tournament, with Rolando Maran on the bench.
Napoli have achieved just two away wins in Serie A from the start of December 2023 to date (5D, 6P), excluding the newly promoted teams of this championship and the relegated teams of last season, no team has done worse (two also for Cagliari and Lecce).
After losing to Hellas Verona, Napoli won their next two Serie A games with Antonio Conte on the bench (against Bologna and Parma) – the last time the Partenopei recorded at least three consecutive league wins under a single manager was in February 2023, with Luciano Spalletti (eight in that case).
