Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Napoli, 4th position with 21 points and a positive goal difference of +12
Empoli, 19th position with 7 points and a negative goal difference of -17

Empoli won the Serie A Week 12 game on Sunday 12 November at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Napoli, Italy. A terrible home defeat for Napoli while Empoli conquered the Maradona in the last minutes with this prestigious victory. Surely, it is a great result for Empoli thanks to Kovalenko’s Eurogoal in the 91st minute. Great achievement also for Empoli Coach Aurelio Andreazzoli achieving five victories in six matches as coach against Napoli. Empoli got now 10 points in the standings, temporarily detaching themselves from the less noble areas of the standings. MVP a sensational goalkeeper Berisha, author of at least four enormous saves. Napoli instead stumbles again: defeat after three useful results in a row and failure to overtake Milan in the standings, as the Azzurri remain at 21 points.

On Matchday 13, upon returning after the international break, Napoli will be on stage in Bergamo against Atalanta, for a direct clash scheduled for Saturday 25 November 2023. For Empoli, however, a home match against Sassuolo on Sunday 26 November 2023.

Empoli scored the winning goal in the 91st minute. Viktor Kovalenko defated Napoli goalkeeper Gollini with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Tyronne Ebuehi.

✅    Stats before the game: No draw in the last nine Serie A matches between Napoli and Empoli: six successes from Campania (including the two from last championship) and three from Tuscany; the Neapolitans won both matches against Empoli 2-0 in the 22/23 tournament and have never obtained three clean sheets in a row against this opponent in the competition. Seven home wins, one draw and two away successes in the 10 Serie A matches played between Napoli and Empoli in Campania: in eight of these matches, the Neapolitan team scored at least two goals. Napoli’s performance in this championship is very different between home and away: away from Maradona the Azzurri average 2.33 points in six games, while at home the average drops to 1.4 in five games. Empoli established its new record of defeats (eight) in the first 11 days of the championship: only in three other circumstances had the Tuscans collected seven or fewer points at this stage of the Serie A tournament (2003/04, 2016/17 and 2018/19, three seasons ended with relegation to Serie B). Napoli have collected 21 points so far: since Serie A returned to 20 teams (2004/05), only one team has managed to win the Scudetto despite collecting 21 or fewer points in the first 11 matches of a top division (Juventus 2015/16, which was at 15 at this point in the tournament).

👉 Lineup NAPOLI (4-2-3-1): Gollini; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Ostigard, Olivera; Anguissa, Lobotka; Politano, Raspadori, Elmas; Simeone.

👉 Lineup EMPOLI (4-3-3): Berisha; Bereszynski, Ismajli, Luperto, Cacace; Fazzini, Ranocchia, Maleh; Cancellieri, Caputo, Cambiaghi.
