Goal Statistics

Udinese's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because Empoli have conceded in each of their last 13 Serie A outings. A PG of 1.6 for Kosta Runjaic's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for Empoli of late. It has been 7 Serie A games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.3 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Sunday afternoon against Udinese.
