Empoli vs Modena: match statistics
Statistical analysis suggests a very evenly matched encounter. Empoli are in 10th place and have the home advantage, where they score an average of 1.55 goals per match, yet as many as 55% of their home games end in draws. Modena are placed higher (6th place) and show better away effectiveness (40% wins), but their recent form is poor - only 0.8 points per match in the last 5 games. The key factor is Empoli's high draw rate at home and the fact that Modena fail to score in 40% of their away matches. Considering both teams' average xG (1.39 vs 1.97) and goal difference, I expect a tight, tactical match with a share of the points.
