Tough situation for Salernitana still in the last position.  Empoli won the Serie A Week 24 game on Friday 9 February 2024 at the Arechi Stadium in Salerno, Italy.  It is a tough defeat for Salernitana seeing their dream for salvation a mirage.

Empoli ahead at the end of the match. Fazzini earned a penalty, converted by Niang (88′). Cancellieri on the counterattack (assisted by Niang) closes the score in the 94th minute.

In the next round, Salernitana will play the away match against Inter, Empoli will face Fiorentina at home.

What a bad luck! Empoli opened the score in the 23rd minute with an own goal by Alessandro Zanoli defeating his goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa.

✅ Stats before the game: The next match will be the eighth match in Serie A between Salernitana and Empoli, with the Granata having won only once previously (3D, 3P): 3-2 success, signed by a hat-trick from Marco Di Vaio, on 14 February 1999 – goals by Cerbone and Bonomi for the Azzurri. The seven matches between Salernitana and Empoli in Serie A saw both teams score on six occasions – with only the first leg being an exception, which the Tuscans won 1-0 – and recorded an average of 3.3 goals scored per game. Salernitana have drawn two of their three home games against Empoli in Serie A (1P) – conceding 2.3 goals per game on average in these matches -, including the most recent: 2-2 on 5 September 2022, under the guidance of current coach of the Azzurri, Davide Nicola. Salernitana have lost their last three home games and only once have they suffered multiple home defeats in a row in Serie A: six consecutive defeats between October 2021 and January 2022, under the guidance of Stefano Colantuono; Furthermore, the Granata are one of the three teams (with Augsburg and Hoffenheim) in the big-5 European leagues still without a clean sheet at home in 2023/24. Empoli are unbeaten in the three games played under Davide Nicola in Serie A (1W, 2D); among the six teams trained in the top flight before the Tuscans (Livorno, Crotone, Udinese, Genoa, Turin and Salernitana), only with one did the Azzurri coach avoid defeat in all the first four benches in the championship, with Torino between January and February 2021 (series reached five).
