Editorial Prediction:
The upcoming Serie B match between Empoli and Catanzaro will be held at the Carlo Castellani stadium in Italy on Saturday, 08 November 2025, local time. This intriguing encounter pits two teams separated by just a single position in their domestic league standings, with Catanzaro currently occupying the 12th position, while Empoli sits just below at 13th.
Examining their most recent head-to-head, Empoli has a psychological advantage, having secured a comprehensive 4-1 victory against Catanzaro in their last meeting on 10 August 2024. In their past encounters, Empoli has emerged victorious in the only match between these two sides, while Catanzaro has yet to record a win over their rivals from Tuscany, and none of their matches have ended in a draw.
Looking at current form, Empoli recently played a 1-1 draw with Sampdoria, suggesting they can compete with strong teams, while Catanzaro enters this match invigorated by a 3-1 win against Mantova. Evaluating individual player contributions, Catanzaro will be wary of Empoli's B. Popov, the club's top scorer with five goals this season, while Empoli's defense will need to be vigilant of Catanzaro's S. Pontisso, who leads his team with two assists.
In terms of player ratings, Catanzaro boasts Alphadjo Cissè with a rating of 7.6, Simone Pontisso at 7.2, and Jacopo Petriccione at 7.17. Empoli counters with Marco Nasti's rating of 7.2, followed by Bogdan Popov at 7.14, and Andrea Ghion with 7.13. Analyzing their style of play, Catanzaro has been more dominant in controlling possession, averaging 57.7% per match compared to Empoli's 47.9%.
The teams are relatively evenly matched in their discipline, with Empoli accumulating 22 yellow cards and 3 red cards, mirroring Catanzaro's record in those categories. Neither team has conceded a penalty goal this season, indicating strong defensive capabilities.
Considering match dynamics, Catanzaro has a slight edge in average corners per game at 4.5 compared to Empoli's 4.2. However, Empoli’s recent head-to-head dominance and strategic player performances could tip the scales in their favor. If Empoli can capitalize on their home advantage and keep key Catanzaro players in check, they stand a favorable chance of emerging victorious in this upcoming clash.
