Italy – Serie A | Empoli VS Napoli; Sunday, 21 April at 00:00 GMT +8

Empoli faces Lecce in a Serie A match, where they lost 1-0. In that match, they had 46% possession and 3 shots on goal. Lecce scored for them with Nicola Sansone’s goal. Empoli has struggled to unlock defenses in recent times, with only 3 goals in their last six games and 8 against them.

Napoli’s last match was a Serie A tie with Frosinone, where they managed 66% possession and 20 attempts at goal. They scored from Matteo Politano and Victor Osimhen, while Frosinone had 13 shots on goal and 6 on target. Napoli has been scored against in six of their last six matches, allowing opponents 12 goals. They have been undefeated in their previous four league matches away from home.

Empoli boss Davide Nicola faces a fitness concern with a fully healthy set of players, including Tyronne Ebuehi, who will not play due to a ruptured ligament tear. Azzurri may opt for a 3-4-2-1 formation with Elia Caprile, Bartosz Bereszynski, and others.

Partenopei is expected to use a 4-3-3 formation, featuring Alex Meret, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Leo Østigard, Natan Souza, Pasquale Mazzocchi, Andre Zambo Anguissa, Stanislav Lobotka, Piotr Zielinski, Matteo Politano, Victor Osimhen, and K. Kvaratskhelia.
