Head to Head 


Empoli have a 10-7 advantage against Cagliari with 5 draws in 22 matches. 

They last met in March, the game being won by Cagliari 1-0. 

Cagliari Form 


Cagliari are having a disappointing start to the new Serie A season, collecting just two points in four matches and scoring one goal. 

The Islanders looked solid in the campaign-opening match against Roma, holding La Lupa to a goalless draw. They also won a point in the second round against Como 1-1, Roberto Piccoli breaking the deadlock just before the break, conceding an equalizer early in the second half. 

Cagliari’s first defeat was seen in the third round at Lecce 1-0, while they got demolished last weekend at home by Napoli 4-0. 

The only victory in the 2024/25 campaign was secured in mid-August in Coppa Italia, beating Carrarese 3-1 at home, Piccoli being man of the match scoring a brace. 

Cagliari Injuries & Team News 


Davide Nicola became new Cagliari’s head manager in early July. 

Defensive midfielder Matteo Prati is his only injury concern ahead of this match, recovering from an ankle injury. 

Empoli Form 


Empoli are still unbeaten in the new Serie A season, sitting in 8th place on the table with six points from four matches (one victory and three draws). 

Roberto D’Aversa’s side was involved in a goalless draw in the first round against Monza, but then caused a major upset by beating Roma 2-1, Emanuel Gyasi and Lorenzo Colombo on target. 

Gyasi appeared on the scoresheet in the third round as well, their duel against Bologna ending in a 1-1 draw. 

Empoli demonstrated great defending last weekend by holding Juventus to a goalless draw at home, ending the match with 0.38-0.88 expected goals, 34% possession and 8-15 shots. 

Empoli Injuries & Team News 


Roberto D’Aversa was appointed new head manager in July. 

He can’t count on injured Ola Solbakken, Luca Belardinelli, Jacopo Fazzini and goalkeeper Samuele Perisan. 

Verdict

Empoli are still unbeaten this season despite facing Roma, Bologna and Juventus. Six of Cagliari’s last ten home games in Serie A ended without a winner, so a draw is likely on Friday.
