Serie A: Empoli vs Frosinone Preview
Teams Enter Season with Different Goals
Serie A will get underway this weekend, and one of the most intriguing fixtures is the clash between Empoli and Frosinone. The two teams have very different goals for the season, with Empoli looking to avoid relegation and Frosinone hoping to make a surprise run at promotion.
Empoli Looking to Avoid Relegation
Empoli narrowly avoided relegation last season, finishing just one point above the drop zone. The team has made a few changes to its squad this summer, but it is unclear if they will be enough to improve their fortunes.
Empoli's main strength is their attacking play. The team has a number of talented attackers, including Francesco Caputo, Leonardo Mancuso, and Filippo Bandinelli. However, their defense is a major liability. Empoli conceded 69 goals last season, which was the second-most in Serie A.
Frosinone Hoping to Make a Surprise Run at Promotion
Frosinone won the Serie B title last season, and they will be looking to make a quick return to Serie A. The team has a strong squad, and they are confident that they can compete with the best teams in the league.
Frosinone's main strength is their midfield. The team has a number of talented players in this area, including Mirko Gori, Francesco Cassata, and Andrea Beghetto. They also have a solid defense, and they will be difficult to break down.
Head-to-Head Record
Empoli and Frosinone have met 10 times in the past, with Empoli winning four times, Frosinone winning three times, and three matches ending in a draw.
Prediction
This is a tough match to predict. Empoli has the home advantage, but Frosinone is the more talented team. I think Frosinone will win this match 2-1.
