Midweek Serie A action is back and Forebet is here once again for all analysis, mathematics, football predictions, trends and data for the game between Salernitana and Empoli at the Arechi Stadium.
Salernitana are sitting rock bottom of the Serie A table right now and come into this match without a win in the past six games in all competitions.
Five of those matches have been losses, as they managed to draw 0-0 with Torino in Turin last time out.
The last win for Salernitana was in a 1-0 win over Hellas Verona where Loum Tchaouna scored in the second half of the game.
This was also the club's second win this league season, as they managed to defeat Lazio at home before that with another goal from Antonio Candreva and a finish from Grigoris Kastanos.
The recent run, however, has now created a five-point gap on Verona in 17th, as Salernitana have lost at home to Juventus, Roma and Genoa already in 2024, while they've also suffered a defeat in Naples to Napoli.
The last-placed Serie A side were also beaten away to Juventus in the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia in a 6-1 thrashing.
What, however, makes this game so important is how it is a chance for Salernitana to close the gap on Empoli in 19th place to just two points. It is, in reality, the biggest game of the season for the home side.
As for Empoli, their run has been a little better as of late, as they managed to defeat Monza thanks to a stunning hat-trick from Szymon Zurkowski.
Empoli drew 0-0 with Genoa in their last outing after also getting a commendable draw away to the title-chasing Juventus before that with Tommazo Baldanzi scoring in the second half.
Empoli have two more wins on the board than Salernitana in Serie A with four victories, although they have the worst goals scored record with only 15 netted throughout the 23 games in the league.
The other wins for them have seen three points collected in a stunning 1-0 win away to Napoli and a 2-0 trip to Florence against the high-flying Fiorentina.
The other win was in the reverse fixture between Empoli and Salernitana on matchday six, as Baldanzi was back amongst the goals in a 1-0 win. However, Forebet now predicts a draw and for the game to see under 2.5 goals.
