Key Highlights

Empoli Look to Maintain Their Good Form to Put Some Distance to the Serie A Drop Zone

Empoli are unbeaten in their last four matches, comprising two wins and two draws. The eight points collected from this run have propelled Empoli away from the relegation zone to 16th on the table, two points above safety.

Ahead of welcoming Fiorentina this weekend, Empoli are keenly aware that they will need to keep up their form to avoid dropping back into the drop zone.

Hosting an inconsistent Fiorentina side provides an opportunity to take points and bolster their charge to avoid the drop.

Fiorentina’s Inconsistency Sees Them Falling Toward Midtable and Away from European Places

Fiorentina’s top-four hopes have come crashing as inconsistency has creeped into their game, seeing them win just once in the last five outings in Serie A.

Three defeats and a draw in this ruin mean that they have dropped down the table to eighth with 37 points, five points behind fourth-placed Atalanta.

Fiorentina’s trip to Empoli will represent a chance to bounce back to winning ways after they lost 2-0 away to Bologna on Wednesday. A win will help bolster their confidence and keep them within touching distance of the top four.
