👉 Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Empoli, 16th position with 4 points and a negative goal difference of -2
Bologna, 12th position with 6 points and a negative goal difference of -2

Tough debut for new Bologna Coach Thiago Motta losing the Serie A Week 7 game against Empoli on Saturday 17 September 2022 at the Renato Dall’Ara Stadium in Bologna, Italy. A goal by Filippo Bandinelli in the second half of the match was enough to give Empoli their first win this season. Bandinelli’s goal is worth 3 precious points reaching 7 points while Bologna remain with 6 points. Bologna battled and might complain given the two poles hit by Arnautovic and Zirkzee deny the draw and Bologna stops their run after three consecutive useful results. Surely, the party is all for Empoli grabbing this important away victory.
