What Cagliari’s first halves look like
Early goals in Cagliari’s matches land at the wrong end far more often than the right one: 52.8% of matches bring one against them and 30.8% bring one for them, 22.0pp apart. An early goal in Cagliari’s matches tends to be the only one: a second follows just 39% of the time, where the division manages 46%.
Home advantage is worth a little to Cagliari rather than a lot: 34.2% of home matches bring an early goal of theirs against 27.5% away. The record here is thinner than most of the division's: 159 matches against a typical 191.
Two goals before the break is unusually hard to come by, 26.4% of Cagliari’s matches against 32.1% across the division. Three-goal first halves stay scarce, 6.3% of Cagliari’s matches against 10.2% for the division as a whole.
Every figure on this page rests on 159 completed Cagliari matches over 5 seasons (2021 to 2026). That is enough to separate a clear tendency from noise, and not enough to split it much further by venue or opponent.

How to read these numbers
- These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
- The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
