Our prediction for the match Empoli vs Como
“The Blues” do not set themselves any bigger goals than ensuring survival in the Serie A for one more season. They coped with it in the spring, but not without luck: the team got 36 points, just one more than Frosinone. “Those from lake Como” were second in Serie B – that was enough to finally return to the elite division of the country, after a pause of a couple of decades.
The newcomer appointed inexperienced Cesc as a full-fledged head coach. Still, the team was replenished with a number of famous players, albeit past their peak. It is reasonable to mention that Varane, after another injury, without really playing in Italy, ended his career. The team, after a less than ideal start, was able to beat Atalanta and Verona in a row. Then it added a draw in the struggle with Parma, while losing in the other matches. And the club finished with a 1-5 score in the confrontation with Lazio. “The Azzurri”, playing well in the cup, where they managed to beat Catanzaro and even Torino, also played well in the championship. There, D’Aversa wards did not lose in the first 6 rounds. Still, then they lost to Lazio and Napoli. And a 1-1 draw in the game against Parma was followed by a failure in the meeting with Inter – 0-3.
D’Aversa’s footballers defend well, conceding less than a goal per game. Still, they also score a little more. The newcomer is doing spectacularly, but the club also has a negative goal ratio – 1.2/1.8.
