Empoli vs Parma

Current streaks

Recent form

Empoli

Empoli are enduring a torrid run of form, having failed to secure a victory in their last 23 matches, a streak that has left them languishing in 19th position in Serie A. The Azzurri have lost four of their last six games, including three consecutive defeats in their most recent outings. Their defensive frailties are evident, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game over the past six matches, while their attacking output has been particularly poor, managing just 0.67 goals per game in the same period. Empoli have struggled to keep clean sheets, with only one in their last six games, and have been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent matches featuring over 2.5 goals. The team's last positive result was a 2-2 draw against Venezia, but even that failed to halt their slide towards the relegation zone.

Parma

Parma have shown a mixed form in their recent matches, with a tendency towards draws. The team have managed only one win in their last six games, drawing four and losing one. Interestingly, Parma have maintained a balanced goal difference, scoring and conceding five goals each over this period. Their defensive record is noteworthy, with three clean sheets in six matches, including two consecutive 0-0 draws against Hellas Verona and Fiorentina. However, their offensive output has been modest, averaging less than a goal per game. The most exciting match in this run was likely the 2-2 draw against Inter Milan, which was one of only two games where both teams scored. Despite their recent struggles, Parma managed an impressive 1-0 victory over Juventus, highlighting their potential to compete with top-tier opponents.

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 challenging run, suffering four defeats and managing only two draws. Most notably, Empoli are currently on a concerning three-match losing streak at home, with their last positive result being a 2-2 draw against Venezia. The team's offensive struggles are evident, having scored just two goals in six games, while their defence has been porous, conceding 12 goals during this period. A particularly heavy defeat came against Atalanta, where Empoli were thrashed 5-0. The team's inability to keep clean sheets, managing only one in six matches, coupled with their low-scoring output, paints a bleak picture of their home performances.

Parma

Parma's recent away form in Serie A has been characterised by a lack of victories and a tendency to draw matches. The Gialloblu have not won any of their last six away games, with their most recent outing being a 2-2 draw against Lazio. Notably, Parma have drawn four consecutive away matches, three of which ended goalless. This run of draws follows two away defeats, indicating a slight improvement in their ability to avoid losses on the road. Defensively, Parma have shown some resilience, keeping two clean sheets in their last six away games and conceding only one goal per game on average. However, their attacking output has been limited, scoring just 0.67 goals per game during this period. The majority of their away matches (67%) have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards low-scoring encounters when Parma play away from home.
