Empoli, Recent FormThe Empoli squad will want to put the 3-0 away thrashing they received from Bologna firmly behind them and may also need to find something to boost their confidence levels as a consequence. They came away from that fixture with 42% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Bologna managed 21 attempts on goal, with 9 on target.
Manager Aurelio Andreazzoli will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 1 goal, conceded 15, and picked up a meagre 3 points. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at home.
Their current run of form shows 5 defeats in their last 6 outings, and that is certainly something they will want to turn around.
Udinese, Recent FormA point gained from their 2-2 draw against Genoa in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Udinese. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Genoa's tally of 8 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Andrea Sottil will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 9 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
A win for Udinese is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 11 games.
On an individual basis, Lazar Samardžić will be looking to cause Empoli some problems having scored 2 goals in Udinese's last 6 away games in the league.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Empoli, losing 0-1 to Udinese.
I Bianconeri will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Empoli, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 6 meetings between the two.
Empoli remains without a victory against Udinese in their previous 3 league encounters.
Empoli manager Aurelio Andreazzoli has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match.
