NAPOLI vs. CAGLIARI Live Stream Online: 2014 Serie A Table, Live Coverage From Napoli, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs in opposite halves of the Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between Napoli and Cagliari. The first-division clash scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at the Stadio San Paolo in Napoli and can be live streamed here free.

Despite being safe from relegation and no longer in reach of qualification for European competition, Cagliari manager Ivo Pulga is yet to check out. The Italian sent a warning to this afternoon's opposition, Napoli: The season is far from finished. Don't expect a half-hearted effort from his side anytime soon (h/t to Forza Italian Football). "Our season is not over," Pulga said.

"There are still three games to go, two of which are against big teams in full stadiums, starting from Tuesday," he added.

"Napoli are very strong. If we compare our squad to theirs, there is no competition, but sometimes motivations make the difference. Just look at what happened in Catania-Roma. I said this also in other occasions: If we play like we are capable of, showing intensity and nastiness like in the last couple of games, we are hard to beat."

"We want to finish well and still have a lot of motivation."
