Empoli, Recent FormPaolo Zanetti will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 11 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Stadio Carlo Castellani.
They have had a good run of form at Stadio Carlo Castellani recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Francesco Caputo will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Empoli's last 6 league games.
Hellas Verona, Recent FormManager (TBC) will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 14 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 4 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Marco Faraoni will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Empoli in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Hellas Verona.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
The I Mastini defence has struggled against Empoli in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 games.
The last 3 league meetings between these sides ended in a share of the points, but Empoli might consider themselves in a better position, having a run of form in this fixture that has seen them unbeaten in their last 3 encounters.
There is only really one injury concern for the Empoli manager Paolo Zanetti ahead of this clash, with Tyronne Ebuehi (Shoulder) missing out, which gives Zanetti a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Ondrej Duda (Cruciate ligament) and Thomas Henry (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, (TBC) will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
