Empoli FC Previous Results
Empoli FC, affectionately known as the Azzurri, have been navigating a rocky patch in their recent fixtures, struggling to find their rhythm both at home and on the road. Their latest outing against Inter Milano was a tough pill to swallow, as they were outclassed in a 3-0 defeat on home turf. This followed a spirited but ultimately fruitless effort against Napoli, where they narrowly lost 1-0, again failing to find the back of the net. The Azzurri's inability to score in these crucial home matches highlights a glaring issue in their attacking play, which has been further compounded by a leaky defence that has seen them concede multiple goals. Away from home, Empoli have shown glimpses of resilience, managing a 1-1 draw against Parma Calcio, which was a hard-fought point. However, their away form has been inconsistent, as evidenced by a narrow 2-1 defeat to Lazio Rome. Despite these setbacks, they did manage to pull off a gritty 2-1 victory over Torino FC in the Coppa Italia, showcasing their potential to grind out results when it matters. The Azzurri's recent performances suggest a team in need of sharpening their attacking edge while tightening up defensively to turn these narrow margins into more favourable outcomes.
Como 1907 Recent Results Insights
Como 1907's recent away form has been a bit of a mixed bag, showcasing both resilience and vulnerability. Their trip to Atalanta was a standout performance, where they managed to snatch a thrilling 3-2 victory, displaying a potent attacking flair. However, this was followed by a setback against Torino, where they failed to find the net, succumbing to a narrow 1-0 defeat. The match against Napoli further highlighted their defensive frailties, as they conceded three goals, managing only a consolation goal in response. Defensively, Como has struggled to keep things tight at the back, particularly evident in their encounters with Napoli and Lazio, where they shipped a total of eight goals. Offensively, they have shown glimpses of promise, especially in the Atalanta game, but consistency remains elusive. The challenge for Como is to shore up their defence while maintaining the attacking threat they occasionally exhibit. As they continue their Serie A campaign, finding the right balance will be key to improving their fortunes on the road.
