For Cagliari-Napoli, Fabio Pisacane is fully confident in the midfield that floundered on Sunday in Pisa: Neapolitan Gianluca Gaetano will be the central midfielder, with Michel Adopo and Ibrahim Sulemana the midfielders. Alessandro Deiola, as suggested in yesterday's press conference , will not return to the starting lineup, nor will Luca Mazzitelli, who was the other possible option, be present. However, the Rossoblu will still be forced to make changes compared to last week's match, especially due to suspensions.

Adam Obert's absence on the left side means Marco Palestra, recently called up by Gennaro Gattuso for Italy's World Cup playoffs , is likely to start. On the right, Zé Pedro could be elevated, maintaining the 3-5-1-1 formation. Otherwise, it would be a four-man defense with only center backs, as Yerry Mina, Alberto Dossena, and Juan Rodríguez are also available. In attack, former midfielder Michael Folorunsho will support the returning Sebastiano Esposito, a Neapolitan from Castellammare di Stabia.

Here are the official lineups for Cagliari-Napoli: kick-off is at 6:30 PM , with Maurizio Mariani of the Aprilia section as the referee . The match can be followed live on unionesarda.it and on Radiolina with live commentary.
