Empoli and Juve Stabia meet in Serie B, with the hosts sitting 18th on 7 points from 9 matches, while the visitors are 11th with 12 points. Both come off frustrating defeats: Empoli have lost 2 in a row, and Juve Stabia have just lost 0-1 at home. This is a game where both sides want to take points so the situation does not get any worse. Empoli have clear defensive problems this season, having conceded 15 goals in 9 matches while scoring only 8. In their last 5 matches they have lost 4 and have not won at all. Juve Stabia, despite losing their most recent match, look steadier overall: they have conceded as many as they have scored, and are unbeaten in 4 of their last 5, with a defence that does not concede much helping them hold games together better than the hosts. The expected pattern is a tight, not particularly open contest. Empoli need to play on the front foot to find a home win, but their leaky defence means they must watch Juve Stabia's counter-attacks, as the visitors keep the ball better and have hit the target more often in their last 10 matches. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how solidly Empoli set up defensively, because if they let the visitors get space in midfield, the game could quickly swing Juve Stabia's way.
