A more than satisfying journey
Up to this moment the path ofEmpoli it was convincing. In twelve matches the men of D’Aversa they have collected fifteen points, which certainly do not represent a sure haul for the salvation objective, but an excellent injection of confidence. The Azzurri have deserved what they have achieved up to this point, thanks to almost always convincing performances and a defensive phase that has allowed them to concede only ten goals. If we count the defeats, they are only three and against superior opponents such as Lazio, Napoli and Inter. In matches against direct competitors, Empoli is still undefeated and this is a fundamental fact for those who will play for their salvation until the end.
Recovery of injured people
The break served to recover strength and energy, given that a lot of it has been spent so far. And also to recover some players who have marked visits in recent days. It should be remembered, in fact, that Empoli was without almost the entire midfield (Pezzella, Anjorin, Fazzini, Grassi) and also had to make up for the absence of Esposito forward. Despite this, a precious equal arrived in Lecce, which underlines the strength of a group that is very centered and concentrated on the objective it must achieve. D’Aversa hopes to recover some players, also to have more choices during the various matches. Not to mention that there is a long-term patient, Zurkowskiwho could soon return to support the team.
