Empoli vs Napoli

The Empoli is now in full relegation zone, after the defeat reported at the Juventus Stadium and the simultaneous victory of Bologna against Sassuolo. A defeat, that of Turin, widely predictable, but with a minimum of attention the Tuscans could have avoided. Kean’s network, in fact, arrived at a time when the hosts almost seemed to lose interest in the final outcome of the contest and in which Andreazzoli’s boys were well placed on the field. Now Empoli is expected by another prohibitive commitment, with Napoli, in which he will have to try to put on the field the failed malice against the Italian champions. A new defeat could undermine the morale of Bennacer and his companions.

Napoli showed up in Empoli thanks to their victory against Roma against Roma, in a match that immediately got off to a good start for the Neapolitans, online after just a couple of minutes with Milik. Perotti’s temporary draw, on a penalty kick, was practically a flash in the dark, considering how in the first minutes of the second half the Campanians took advantage of the clamorous mistakes of the hosts to score the one-two that practically closed the challenge, before the final icing of Younes. With a desperate Empoli, however, the task of Ancelotti’s boys could now be considerably more complicated.
