On Monday evening, Salernitana and Empoli go head-to-head at the Stadio Arechi, as both teams look to kick-start their Serie A campaigns after relatively poor starts to the season.

Salernitana

Davide Nicola’s team are unbeaten in three league games after starting the new Serie A campaign with a 1-0 defeat by Roma. Since then, Salernitana has drawn against Udinese and Bologna and also recorded a 4-0 home victory over Sampdoria.

Salernitana’s most recent Serie A games have not been the highest scoring, as five of their previous seven matches in the Italian top-flight have produced under 2.5 goals.

The Granata have a mixed recent home record in Serie A. However, their record of one home win in their previous four league outings on home soil is a poor one. The win over Samp ended a run of three home games without a victory in Serie A.

Empoli

The visitors have claimed three points from their four matches in Serie A this season. After they suffered a 1-0 loss at Spezia on the season's opening weekend, Empoli has drawn their last three league games against Fiorentina, Lecce and Verona.

Their matches in Serie A have been tight and low-scoring affairs, as there have been under 2.5 goals scored in their last six league outings dating back to last season.

Empoli has struggled for victories on their travels of late in Serie A, as they have lost five of their last seven away games in the Italian top-flight. They have also won just one of their last 13 away matches in Serie A.

The visitor's recent away matches have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in nine of their last 11 matches in Serie A.
