Cagliari's recent form shows a concerning trend, with the team currently sitting in 19th position in Serie A. They are winless in their last four league games, with two draws followed by two consecutive losses. Their most recent match against Napoli resulted in a heavy 4-0 defeat, which is their highest-scoring game in this period and also their largest margin of defeat. The team's only win in the last six games came in a Coppa Italia match against Carrarese. Defensively, Cagliari has struggled, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game, while their attacking output has been limited to just one goal per game. Their ability to keep clean sheets has been rare, with only one in the last six matches. Interestingly, their games have been evenly split between high-scoring (over 2.5 goals) and low-scoring (under 2.5 goals) affairs, suggesting inconsistency in their performances.

Empoli

Empoli has shown resilience in their recent form, currently sitting in 8th position with 6 points from 4 Serie A games. Their last six matches across all competitions reveal a mixed but generally positive trend, with 2 wins, 3 draws, and only 1 loss. Notably, Empoli has been defensively solid, keeping 2 clean sheets and conceding an average of just 0.83 goals per game. Their most impressive result came in a 2-1 away victory against AS Roma, while their highest-scoring game was a 4-1 win over Catanzaro in the Coppa Italia.

Recent home/away form

Cagliari

Cagliari's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with their last six games resulting in two wins, two draws, and two losses. The team has struggled to find consistency, alternating between positive and negative results. Notably, Cagliari's defense has been a concern, conceding 9 goals in these 6 games, with a particularly heavy 4-0 defeat to Napoli in their most recent home match. On the positive side, they managed two clean sheets, including a goalless draw against AS Roma. The team's attacking output has been modest, scoring 7 goals across these games, with their most impressive offensive display coming in a 3-1 Coppa Italia victory over Carrarese. Interestingly, their home games have been evenly split between high-scoring affairs and tighter contests, with 50% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in half of the games.

Empoli

Empoli's recent away form shows a mix of results, with a notable improvement in their last two games. After a challenging period of three consecutive losses against Lecce, Atalanta, and Lazio, where they failed to score and conceded five goals, Empoli has shown resilience by securing a draw against Udinese and a impressive win against AS Roma. The team's defensive record has been a concern, conceding in all six games and averaging 1.33 goals against per game. However, their most recent performances suggest a potential turnaround in their away form. The majority of Empoli's away games (83%) have been low-scoring affairs with under 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency towards tighter, more defensive matches on the road.
