Hellas Verona beat Empoli and win the Serie A Week 1 game on Saturday 19 August 2023 at the Carlo Castellani Stadium in Empoli, Italy. One goal was enough to conquer the victory. The defeat is a bad feeling for Empoli fans who were expecting a home victory to start the new season. Coach Marco Baroni wins with substitutions. In the second half, Verona grow while the Tuscans drop, Bonazzoli as soon as he enters wets his debut with a three-point goal, quick to take advantage of a serious indecision by Caprile on a corner play. Djuric had his double canceled for offside, Shpendi nearly scored the Euro goal from distance but Montipo was not surprised.
On the second day, Empoli will visit Monza while Baroni’s team will host AS Roma.
Hellas Verona upset the Castellani! In the 75th minute, Federico Bonazzoli opened the score by defeating Empoli goalkeeper with a left-footed shot to the bottom right corner following a corner conceded by Ardian Ismajli.

👉 Stats before the game: Empoli and Verona have drawn their last three Serie A encounters after registering just one X in their previous nine ties in the competition: four wins for each side complete the tally. Verona have never conceded more than one goal from Empoli in Serie A (nine goals in 12 matches); the Tuscan one is the team against which the Venetians have played the most matches without ever conceding at least two goals in the top division. Three wins and three draws for Empoli at home against Verona in Serie A: among the teams against which the Tuscans have never lost in home games in the competition, only Bologna has been faced more than once by the Azzurri: nine (W5, 4N).
Empoli have never drawn in their Serie A season opener (four wins and 11 defeats, including the 0-1 draw against Spezia last season). The Tuscan formation is in fact the one that has played the most top leagues without an X sign in the first game of the season (15).
