Empoli-Udinese, Serie A: TV, streaming, likely lineups, prediction

by Sabrina

Empoli-Udinese is a match valid for the 13th day of Serie A and is played on Monday at 6:30pm: stats, news, likely lineups, prediction, live TV, streaming.

After 12 days in the league Empoli and Udinese are enjoying the tranquility of the mid-table. Noni the Friulians, on 16 points. Tenth instead are the Tuscans, just one length behind the Bianconeri.

The most important thing, however, is that the red zone remains for both of them at a safe distance: for now, in fact, the fight not to be relegated does not seem to concern the two teams, whose primary goal remains to win salvation as soon as possible. Empoli before the break had recorded its sixth draw of the season, sharing the stakes with Lecce (1-1). In the last two months, Roberto D’Aversa’s men have beaten only Como, but the only defeats have come against teams currently occupying the top places in the rankings (Inter, Lazio, Napoli). The Azzurri, in short, have nothing to reproach themselves with: the attack produces little, it is there for all to see – only 9 goals scored – yet D’Aversa can count on a defense that has conceded fewer goals than only Juve and Napoli (10). Udinese’s trajectory is different, having come back down to earth after a start clearly above expectations.

Kosta Runjaic’s team comes from 3 defeats in a row (Venezia, Juventus and Atalanta), which become five if we take into consideration the last seven days. Against Gasperini’s Dea two weeks ago, a good performance was not enough to avoid the sixth knockout (2-0) since the league began.

Empoli-Udinese: latest lineup news

The infirmary remains full at Empoli (unavailable Ebuehi, Fazzini, Grassi, Zurkowski, Perisan, Sazonov) but the break has allowed D’Aversa to recuoerate one of the most important players, Esposito: the former Inter player will go to join Maleh on the three-quarter. Colombo is expected to play in attack; however, the duel with Pellegri, who scored on the last day against Lecce, remains tight.

Runjaic could change something in the attack, with Davis undermining Lucca: the Englishman is a candidate for a place next to Thauvin. In defense, on the other hand, vying for a shirt are Kabasele and Touré.
