Frosinone Calcio are looking to finally end their misfortunes in Serie A recently, when they meet with Empoli FC, who are also struggling recently. Although both teams are struggling, Frosinone are the ones in a better spot in the league table. They are sitting at the 12th of the league table with 12 points, but a win here is huge for them. On the other hand, Empoli is at the 19th of the league table, as they only have seven points, which means a win here is crucial for them. These two teams already have 16 matches against each other, and surprisingly, Empoli has a better record. They were able to win nine matches, while Frosinone only recorded four wins. This meeting is on November 7, 2023, at 1:30 AM (GMT+8).
Frosinone Calcio
Frosinone set an unwanted Serie A record in round 10 by losing a 3-0 lead in the final 20 minutes after a 4-3 loss against Claudio Ranieri’s Cagliari. The Canaries, who had a seven-goal thriller against newly promoted clubs, fell to consecutive losses and stay 12th in the top flight. However, a home fixture bodes well for the Canaries, who have claimed three victories and a draw in four matches in front of their supporters, ranking as the seventh-best home record in Serie A. A continuation could be in the offing for a side keen to respond to last weekend’s collapse. Fortunately though, they are the ones with the advantage against their opponents when it comes to their meeting in the Serie A. They won two matches from the four matches they played in the Serie A.
Coming into this game, they have a lot of absences, which is one of the reasons of their misfortunes. Francesco Gelli, Abdou Harroui, Sergio Kalaj, Giuseppe Caso, Marvin Cuni, and Soufine Bidaoui are all absent due to their injuries.
Empoli FC
Empoli’s recent struggles in the league and defensive weaknesses have led to a heavy loss at Atalanta. The Blues have scored three goals, with only Salernitana and Cagliari having worse defensive records. Aurelio Andreazzoli aims to mastermind the club’s third victory of the season, likely to lift them out of the division’s bottom three. The Azzurri’s two victories have come when they have found the back of the net, 1-0 against Salernitana and a 2-0 triumph at Fiorentina. The derby win over the Viola ended a three-game losing run with 12 conceded goals, which is not favorable for Empoli before the trip to Frosinone. However, they need to improve their attacks, as they are the team with the record of the worst attacking record in the Serie A this season. From their 10 matches, they only scored three goals, which is very concerning for them.
Youssef Maleh is suspended for Empoli as he picked up his fifth yellow card, during their 3-0 loss against Atalanta. Additionally, Giuseppe Pezzella, and Mattia Destro are both ruled out in this match, while Tomasso Badlanzi is a doubt in this match.
