Empoli confront Salernitana for honour and success.
- Empoli have the fewest scored goals (0) in Serie A
- Salernitana have yet to win a game.
These are full days for the hometeam, as they were in action only three days ago in the Serie A. This match was also played here at Stadio Carlo Castellani. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Salernitana have had more rest.
Empoli form and stats
Empoli have played three Serie A home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
Magnani (own goal) was the last player to score a league goal for Empoli and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Empoli haven't scored in 540 minutes.
Empoli experienced a slightly shocking defeat 0-1 against Inter in their previous match, also played in front of their own fans. Ismajli was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.5 out of 10. The defender Ismajli hit one key pass and won 0 of 1 duels.
Prior to that, an away loss at Roma.This is expected to be a close game, with Empoli perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Empoli as a small favourite), we find 6 games. Empoli has won 5 of these, drawn 0 and lost 1.
One betting fact: This team have played 5 league fixtures in a row with only one (or none) club finding the net.
The manager Andreazzoli will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Bologna in only four days.
Empoli have conceded 4 in these home matches.
Salernitana form and stats
The Serie A season is young and Salernitana have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.
There were no winners in Salernitana's previous match, the home game that ended 1-1 vs Frosinone (placed 8th). Attacker Cabral got a player rating of 8.14 in the game. "Man of the match" Cabral scored one goal, hit the woodwork once, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 4 of 6 times.
A loss against Torino was the result prior to that, in a home game.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Salernitana playing away and similar expectations, we found 4 relevant matches. Results were 0 Salernitana wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
After this away game Salernitana return home for a Serie A game against Inter. That game is only three sleeps after this.
