The Serie A Week 12 game between Empoli and Genoa ended with a draw on Friday 5 November 2021 at the Carlo Castellani Stadium in Empoli, Italy.  Genoa needed the victory to avoid falling down in the relegation zone, though saving 1 point.  Empoli having +7 points lead over Genoa.  Previously, Empoli remained unbeaten in their first five Serie A matches against Genoa (2W, 3D).

✅  Stats before the game.    Genoa found success in two of the five Serie A matches at Castellani against Empoli (2N, 1P): the two victories came in the last two games in Tuscany (the last 1-3 with Prandelli on the bench in January 2019).It was from the 2006/07 season (15 also in that case) that Empoli had not collected at least 15 points in the first 11 Serie A games and it was from the 2002/03 season (18 in that case) that the Tuscans had not scored at least 16 goals at this point in the tournament. In four of the last five seasons (including this one) Genoa have collected just eight or fewer points in their first 11 league games and have always maintained the category at the end of the year.  Empoli have only won three of their 15 points at home (on par with Genoa is the worst home performance of this league): the Tuscans have in fact lost in five of the six Serie A games played at Castellani (1W).
