Genoa and Empoli ended the Serie A Week 27 with a 1- 1 draw on Sunday, March 2, 2025, at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genoa, Italy.   In the league standings, Genoa remains at 31 points, while Empoli moves up to 22 points. Empoli initially took the lead with a goal from Alberto Grassi in the 36th minute following a corner kick. However, in the second half, they couldn’t extend their advantage.  In the 81st minute, an own goal by Marco Silvestri equalized the match.

This matchup features the team with the least goals scored in the first half of the season (Genoa, with 5 goals) against the team with the fewest goals in the second half (Empoli, with 7 goals) for this Serie A season.

Genoa vs Empoli: Coach Roberto D’Aversa preparing to face Genoa for the eleventh time in his coaching career. So far, there have been no draws in their encounters, with D’Aversa securing 6 wins and Genoa claiming 4 victories. In fact, Genoa is the team D’Aversa has triumphed over the most in Serie A, boasting six wins in nine matches.

Empoli gained the upper hand in the 36th minute when Alberto Grassi found the back of the net with a right-footed shot aimed at the bottom right corner, capitalizing on a corner given away by Alessandro Zanoli.

  Stats before the game.

Genoa has not lost to Empoli in their last 10 Serie A encounters, boasting 5 wins and 5 draws. The last time Empoli triumphed over the Grifone in the top division was on October 24, 2015, when they won 2-0 at the Castellani.

On the other hand, Empoli has only managed to secure 1 victory in their 7 away games against Genoa in Serie A, with a record of 4 draws and 2 losses. Their sole win came on April 27, 2008, when Ignazio Abate scored under the management of Luigi Cagni.

Recently, Genoa has been impressive at home, winning their last three league matches at the Ferraris without allowing any goals. The last time they achieved four consecutive home victories in Serie A was between February and April 2016, when they won five times under Gasperini. If they manage to win four home games in a row without conceding again, it will mark the third time in their Serie A history, following their streaks in May-September 1991 and December 1939-February 1940.
