Match preview: Napoli vs Empoli
Team analysis: Napoli
Napoli’s last performance ended in a 1-1 draw against Bologna. The lone goal for the team was scored by Frank Anguissa. The side typically lines up in a 4-3-3 formation, favouring ball possession and quick transitions down the flanks. Key attacking players include David Neres, Matteo Politano, and Romelu Lukaku, who combine speed and strength in front of goal. The team often utilises the left side of the pitch effectively, with Mathías Olivera being notable for his overlapping runs and crossing ability. Unfortunately, they will be without Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Frank Anguissa due to suspensions, alongside injuries to Alex Meret and Nikita Contini.
Team analysis: Empoli
For this league, they have not clinched victory in any of their last 16 games. In their away matches, some recurrent scores include a 0-1 halftime score (6 in 16 games) and a final score of 1-1 (6 in 16 games). Defensive issues persist, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches in this competition. There is also a marked inclination for high-scoring games in their away fixtures, with 15 of the last 16 encounters resulting in more than 1.5 goals. In this league season, Empoli has never overturned a deficit in the 15 games where they conceded first. Two significant periods in their last 16 away matches are noted: they scored 8 of their 19 goals between the 31st and 45th minutes, while they conceded 11 of their 27 goals during the final minutes, between 76 and 90.
Empoli heads into this match following a goalless draw with Cagliari. The visiting team typically sets up in a 3-4-3 formation, focusing on rapid transitions through the flanks. Key players in their attack are Liberato Cacace, Sebastiano Esposito, and Lorenzo Colón, who provide mobility and finishing quality. They tend to exploit the left side during offensive phases, often benefiting from Giuseppe Pezzella’s overlapping runs to create goal-scoring opportunities. Unfortunately, they will be missing Marco Silvestri, Nicolas Haas, Christian Kouamé, Szymon Żurkowski, Ardian Ismajli, Saba Sazonov, Pietro Pellegri, and Youssef Maleh due to various injury issues.
