Clean sheet against Lecce

Caprile made three saves and secured a clean sheet in Monday's 1-0 victory over Lecce.

Analysis: Caprile was in for a decent night as Cagliari shut out Lecce, earning three saves on his way to a clean sheet. This is already the keeper's second clean sheet of the season, as he earned one against Parma in their season opener. He will now prepare to face Atalanta on Saturday, likely to be a tough task, although Cagliari did hold Inter Milan to only a single goal.

Makes five saves in defeat

Caprile recorded five saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Inter Milan.

Analysis: Caprile was kept busy by an Inter side that consistently created opportunities, making five saves while only being beaten by Hakan Calhanoglu's early strike. He has now accumulated seven saves while conceding just once with one clean sheet through two Serie A appearances this season, an encouraging start despite Sunday's defeat. Caprile will look to add another strong performance in the upcoming league clash against Lecce.

Opens season with clean sheet

Caprile kept a clean sheet while making two saves during Saturday's 1-0 win over Parma.

Analysis: Caprile helped Cagliari to all three points by shutting out Parma on Saturday. The keeper kept eight clean sheets across 38 appearances last campaign and is on his way to equaling or surpassing that total. Caprile and Cagliari will find a tougher test next time out against Inter Milan.

Two saves in win

Caprile had two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory versus AC Milan.

Analysis: Caprile delivered an outstanding performance in Sunday's 2-1 win at San Siro, making two saves across 90 minutes to deny an AC Milan side that threw everything forward in a desperate attempt to preserve UEFA Champions League qualification. The Italian goalkeeper was beaten only by Alexis Saelemaekers' instinctive second-minute finish before holding firm through Cagliari's two counterattacking goals to complete a historic result. Caprile ends the 2025-26 Serie A season with eight clean sheets, 122 saves and 53 goals conceded across 38 appearances, establishing himself as the undisputed first-choice goalkeeper in a Cagliari side that comfortably secured mid-table survival despite a difficult transitional campaign.

Makes two saves in win

Caprile made two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Torino.

Analysis: Caprile made no more than two saves for the 13th time in 37 starts, but it was enough to earn the home win. The goalkeeper has eighth clean sheets over that span. He will now face a tougher matchup to close the season at Milan on Sunday.

Beaten twice in Udinese fixture

Caprile made four saves and two clearances and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Udinese.

Analysis: Caprile batted away a few attempts on goal, but his defense eventually came apart twice in the second half, allowing two clear-cut chances on which Adam Buksa and Idrissa Gueye capitalized. He has kept two clean sheets in the last five games, making 16 saves and surrendering seven goals. Up next, Cagliari will host Torino next Sunday.

Concedes twice against Atalanta

Caprile recorded five saves and allowed two goals in Monday's 3-2 victory against Atalanta.
