Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Parma, 14th position with 32 points and a negative goal difference of -14
Empoli, 19th position with 25 points and a negative goal difference of -28

👉 Empoli won the Serie A Week 36 match defeating Parma on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at the Carlo Stellani Stadium in Empoli, Italy.  Currently, Parma holds the 15th position with 32 points, sitting 5 points clear of the relegation zone. Empoli is in 17th place with 28 points, just 1 point above the danger zone. However, with Verona facing Lecce and Venezia up against Fiorentina on Sunday, the situation could shift dramatically if either Salento or Lagunari secures a win.

Empoli earned a well-deserved victory, even though their second-half performance could have been better. Fazzini scored, but Djuric equalized for Parma despite their one-player disadvantage. Then Anjorin brought his magic to the game. As always, it’s the key moments and the skills of the top players that determine the outcome. Meanwhile, Parma remains in a tough spot. They could have secured their safety with a win tonight, but Chivu’s team still has work to do. This victory also ends Empoli’s long stretch of 20 matches without a win, with their last victory dating back to December 8 against Verona, where they won 4-1. It’s been a while since they last won at home, but now the curse is lifted, and Empoli is fighting for survival in the final stretch.

Empoli will return to the field on May 18 (there is no time yet) when they will challenge Monza, already relegated. Parma will instead face Napoli, who are fighting for the Scudetto.

The action…

Empoli gained the upper hand in the 11th minute when Jacopo Fazzini found the net with a right-footed strike into the top right corner. The assist came from Liam Henderson, who delivered a cross after a corner awarded to Lautaro Valenti. This set piece gave the Tuscans an edge in a match that had been tightly contested due to the stakes involved. Fazzini’s impressive shot, set up by Henderson, outsmarted goalkeeper Suzuki.

Parma leveled the score in the 73rd minute.  Milan Djuric headed the ball into the bottom right corner, assisted by Hernani. It was an amazing equalizer for the Ducali, with Djuric scoring from a free kick. However, there may be a concern about Bonny’s potential offside, as he didn’t touch the ball but did interfere with Vasquez.

Empoli clinched the winning goal in the 86th minute. Tino Anjorin fired a right-footed shot into the top right corner, assisted by Ismael Konaté. With Konaté’s pass, Anjorin regained the lead for Empoli, delivering an unstoppable right-footed strike past Suzuki. The play began with Fazzini, who persisted despite the visitors’ temporary equalizer.

Stats before the game

Empoli and Parma have drawn four of their last six Serie A games, with a win each completing the streak; before this run they had never shared the spoils in their previous 13 top-flight games.

Here is the situation. Empoli have drawn their last three home Serie A games against Parma; for the Tuscans this is their longest open streak of home draws against a single opponent in the competition (three also against Fiorentina).  Empoli have not won in Serie A since 8 December against Hellas Verona and since then they are the only team not to have obtained a single win in the competition – the Tuscans have collected six points in the period, only Monza (five) have done worse.

In this championship Empoli have won only one home game (7D, 9L) and no team in the current top five European leagues has done worse (one home win each for Monza, Ipswich Town and Southampton).

Parma have drawn six of their last eight league games (W1 L1), as many draws as in their previous 22 games in the competition (W4 L12).

Parma have not won away from home in Serie A since 9 November against Venezia (D5 L6) and in particular they have drawn all of their last four away games in the tournament; the Gialloblu have never achieved five draws in a row away from home in the competition.
