Empoli vs Venezia

Current streaks

Recent form

Empoli

Empoli are currently enduring a dire run of form, finding themselves in 19th position in Serie A with just 24 points from 32 games. The Azzurri have failed to secure a victory in their last 19 matches, a worrying streak that has plunged them into the relegation zone. Their recent performances have been particularly poor, with four losses and two draws in their last six outings across all competitions. Empoli's attacking prowess has been virtually non-existent, scoring a meagre 0.17 goals per game in this period, whilst conceding an average of 1.5 goals per match. Their defensive record shows some resilience, with 67% of their recent matches featuring under 2.5 goals, but their inability to find the back of the net is proving costly. The 3-0 defeat to Napoli stands out as their heaviest loss in this run, highlighting the team's struggles against stronger opposition.

Venezia

Venezia's recent form has been a mixed bag, with the team struggling to find consistency in Serie A. Currently languishing in 18th position with just 24 points from 32 games, the Venetians have managed only one win in their last six matches. Their defensive record has been somewhat improved, keeping two clean sheets in this period, but their goal-scoring has been a concern, averaging just one goal per game. The standout result in this run was a narrow 1-0 victory over Monza, which broke a three-match winless streak in the league. However, their most recent outings have been disappointing, with back-to-back 4-2 defeats in friendly matches against Koper, highlighting defensive frailties. With 67% of their last six games featuring under 2.5 goals, Venezia have been involved in relatively low-scoring affairs, but will need to address their goal difference of -4 if they hope to climb out of the relegation zone.

Recent home/away form

Empoli

Empoli's recent home form has been dismal, with the team failing to secure a single victory in their last six matches at the Stadio Carlo Castellani. The Azzurri have endured a particularly poor run, suffering four consecutive defeats before managing a goalless draw against Cagliari in their most recent home fixture. Empoli's attacking prowess has been virtually non-existent, with the team scoring just one goal in their last six home games, averaging a meagre 0.17 goals per match. Defensively, they've struggled as well, conceding 12 goals during this period. A standout result in this dire run was the heavy 5-0 defeat to Atalanta, highlighting Empoli's vulnerability at the back. With only one clean sheet and a goal difference of -11 in these six matches, Empoli's home form is a significant concern as they battle to avoid relegation from Serie A.

Venezia

Venezia have been struggling in their recent away fixtures, failing to secure a victory in their last six outings. The team's poor form is evident with three draws and three losses, including a particularly high-scoring defeat against Koper in two consecutive friendly matches, both ending 4-2. Venezia's defensive frailties are apparent, conceding an average of two goals per game whilst only managing to score once per match themselves. Despite this, they have shown some resilience in Serie A, earning three consecutive draws against Lecce, Como, and Atalanta, with the latter resulting in a rare clean sheet. However, their overall performance remains concerning, as they currently sit in 18th position in the league with just 24 points from 32 games, highlighting their precarious situation in the relegation battle.
