Inter vs Cagliari kick-off time
Inter vs Cagliari kicks off on 17 Apr at 14:45 EST and 19:45 GMT.
Match preview
Inter are currently firing on all cylinders, coming off a high-octane 4-3 victory over Como that has left them nine points clear at the summit of Serie A. With only six rounds remaining, head coach Cristian Chivu has the luxury of balancing his league ambitions with an upcoming Coppa Italia semi-final, though maintaining their formidable nine-match unbeaten streak at home remains the immediate priority. Marcus Thuram is the man of the hour for the hosts, having just bagged a vital brace, and he’ll be looking to exploit a Cagliari defence that historically struggles at the San Siro.

The visitors arrive with a bit of wind in their sails after a crucial 1-0 win against Cremonese, which pulled them six points clear of the relegation zone. However, the Islanders have a mountain to climb; they haven't beaten Inter in their last 12 attempts and have a dismal record against the league's top-three teams this season. The narrative of the night might just belong to Sebastiano Esposito, the Inter loanee currently leading Cagliari’s line, who has been in fine form and would love nothing more than to stun his parent club on one of football's grandest stages.
Key stats & injury news
Inter has turned the San Siro into a fortress, but Chivu will have to shuffle his deck slightly for this one. The biggest miss is undoubtedly Lautaro Martinez, who remains sidelined with a muscle injury and isn't expected back until late April. Adding to the selection headaches, midfielder Petar Sucic is serving a one-match ban after picking up his fifth yellow card in that chaotic win at Como.

Statistically, this matchup has leaned heavily in one direction lately, with Inter winning 10 of the last 12 meetings. Cagliari’s struggles are compounded by a slow-starting offense - they are the only team in the division yet to score a goal in the opening 20 minutes of a match. Their injury list isn't helping matters either; Luca Mazzitelli is out with a calf strain, joining long-term absentees Mattia Felici and Riyad Idrissi. With Leonardo Pavoletti also dealing with physical discomfort, much of the creative burden will fall on the shoulders of Esposito and veteran Andrea Belotti as they try to break a San Siro winless drought that stretches back to 2016.
