Prediction: 2-1
Carrarese
Out-of-form Empoli will be aiming to put an end to their four-game winless run when they take on Carrarese on Matchday 5. The Azzurri suffered a dip in form, with the team continuously struggling at the back, but Sunday’s game could turn their fortunes around in the Italian second tier. Bear in mind that all Degli Innocenti, Haas, and Pellegri are out of contention with injuries.
The Giallazzurri, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-3 loss to Avellino. Carrarese are low on confidence ahead of the trip to Empoli and given the Azzurri’s need for points, home win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but goalkeeper Stefano Mazzini remains on the sidelines with a shoulder problem. Antonio Calabro is likely to stick to the 3-4-2-1 formation.
