Empoli goes on the road to face Salernitana in a round 5 match of Italian Serie A thinking about one thing only: winnnin their first game of the season. It is true that the team has shown improvement after a bumpy start of the tournament, but they are still lacking that final thrust they will go seeking in Stadio Arechi. We suggest an away win or draw bet for this game.

The 2022/23 did not start well for Empoli. They kicked off the season with a Coppa Italia match against Spal, from Serie B, and lost 2-1 after extra time. Their Serie A participatio also stated with a blow, as they returned empty handed from their visit to Spezia after losing by 1-0.

Since then, Paolo Zanetti's side has not encountered defeat again, altough not everything is as good as this may seem. Three consecutive draws outshine a little bit this achievement, as the team is starting to fall behind in the standings. Consistency is clearly one of the things they are missing the most, as they have scored the first goal in their last two matches, but failed to hold the advantage.

Nevertheless, the team's performance has increased in this three game unbeaten run. The callenge will now be to stay focused during the 90 minutes in order to grab three points from their visit to Salerno and continue without losing for at least another match.

On the other hand, Salernitana barely managed to avoid relegation last season by only one point and are now trying to take advantage of that opportunity, as they started the 22/23 with some good league results. Nevertheless, they have lost two of their last three games against Empoli conceding four goals in each, so they will have to be very careful this Monday.

恩波利在意甲第五轮对阵萨勒尼塔纳的比赛中只考虑一件事:在他们赛季的第一场比赛中获胜。在经历了坎坷的开局后，球队确实表现出了进步，但他们仍然缺乏在阿雷奇球场寻求的最后冲刺。我们建议在本场比赛中取胜或平局。

2022/23赛季恩波利的开局并不好。他们在意大利杯上与意乙的斯帕尔展开了比赛，在加时赛后以2比1落败。他们在意甲的表现也受到了打击，他们在客场0 - 1输给斯佩齐亚后空手而归。

从那以后，保罗·萨内蒂的球队再没有遭遇过失败，尽管并非一切都像看起来的那么好。连续三场平局让这一成绩相形见绌，因为球队在积分榜上开始落后了。稳定性显然是他们最缺乏的东西之一，因为他们在最近两场比赛中打进了第一球，但未能保持优势。

尽管如此，球队的表现还是在这三场不败中有所提高。现在的挑战是在90分钟内保持专注，以便在客场挑战萨莱诺的比赛中拿到三分，并且至少在下一场比赛中保持不败。

另一方面，上赛季萨勒尼塔纳仅以一分之差勉强保级，现在他们正试图利用这个机会，因为他们在22/23赛季开局就取得了一些不错的联赛成绩。尽管如此，他们在过去三场对恩波利的比赛中输掉了两场，每场都丢了4球，所以他们在周一必须非常小心。
