Empoli vs Como Predictions

A low-scoring contest seems likely in Monday's Serie A contest.

I'm putting my money on under 2.5 goals scored at the Stadio Carlo Castellani.

Empoli have seen under 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 5 home matches
Empoli failed to score in their last 5 home matches
Como have seen under 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 5 away matches
Como have scored an average of 0.83 goals in their last 6 away matches

Head to Head

Empoli and Como will meet for the fifth time on Monday. Como won two of four previous encounters, with Empoli victorious on one occasion.

All four previous matchups saw fewer than three goals scored.

Empoli Form

Empoli's winless run extended to five games last weekend, with Inter emerging easy 3-0 winners at the Stadio Carlo Castellani. The Azzurri Empolesi have picked up just two draws from their last five Serie A encounters.

Roberto D'Aversa's side have done most of their best work in away matches this season. Empoli picked up just three points from five home Serie A fixtures since August (D3, L2).

A lack of attacking firepower has been a massive issue for the home side. The Azzurri Empolesi failed to score in their last five matches at the Stadio Carlo Castellani.

Empoli Team News

Head coach D'Aversa has a lengthy list of players set to miss out on Monday. Saba Goglichidze is suspended while Samuele Perisan, Tyronne Ebuehi, Szymon Zurkowski, Saba Sazonov and Sebastiano Esposito are injury absentees.

Como Form

Como come into Monday's Serie A matchup now winless in four matches following a painful 5-1 home defeat against Lazio last weekend. Three goals conceded in the final 20 minutes condemned Cesc Fabregas's side to their heaviest defeat since their return to Serie A this summer.

A poor run of results has seen I Lariani pick up just one point from their last four Serie A fixtures (D1, L3).

Como also slipped to defeat in three of their last four away league matches, including a 1-0 loss at Torino ten days ago.

Como Team News

Cesc Fabregas is unable to call on three first-team players this week. Matthias Braunoder is suspended following his dismissal against Lazio last time out.

Injured duo Sergi Roberto and Ignace Van der Brempt are also expected to miss out for the away side.

Verdict

Empoli v Como

A tight affair seems likely in Monday's early kick-off in Serie A.

Under 2.5 goals is my only choice at the Stadio Carlo Castellani.
