Lazio won the Serie A Week 36 game against Empoli on Sunday 12 May 2024 at the Olimpio di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy. Lazio reached 59 points and continues to dream of being able to participate in the 2024-25 Champions League. Lazio guaranteed the arithmetic of that place, going plus eight over Napoli. while Empoli remained stuck at 32 and must guard against the potential returns of Udinese and Sassuolo.

Empoli are fresh from a draw (0-0) against Frosinone, but still remain in the fight to avoid relegation. It currently boasts just a two-point margin over 18th place, occupied by Udinese with 30 points. Away from Castellani, however, the blue and whites have been on a losing streak for four consecutive championship games and, so far, have only won four times (three draws, 10 defeats to boot).

In the next round of the championship, Lazio will be involved in San Siro against Inter: match scheduled for Sunday 19 May 2024. An away challenge also for Empoli, who will still play on Sunday 19 May but on the Udinese pitch.

Lazio took the lead before ending the first half in the 45+3’minute. Patric defeated Empoli goalkeeper from very close range with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Mattia Zaccagni following a corner conceded by Emmanuel Gyasi.

Lazio sealed the victory in the 89th minute. Matías Vecino scored with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Pedro.with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Pedro.


✅    Stats before the game: Lazio have won their last two Serie A matches against Empoli without conceding a goal; The Biancocelesti had already achieved two successes in a row without goals conceded against the Azzurri twice in the competition, but they never reached three. Among the teams against which they have never lost at home in Serie A, Empoli is the one Lazio has faced the most: the Biancocelesti have in fact achieved nine wins and four draws in 13 home matches against the Tuscans. Since the arrival of Igor Tudor, Lazio have achieved four successes in six Serie A matches (1N, 1P), as many as in the previous 10 (1N, 5P); the Biancocelesti also kept a clean sheet three times in the period, as many clean sheets as those obtained in the previous 12. Tudor could win his fourth home match out of four in charge of Lazio, equaling the records of Delio Rossi (2005) and Alfredo Monza (1958) as the best home start for a new coach on the Biancoceleste bench from the post-war period to today.  Empoli have failed to score in seven of their last nine Serie A matches and in the period from the beginning of March onwards, the Tuscan team was the team in the top five European leagues not to have scored in the most matches.
