Empoli and Carrarese prepare for Serie B matchup

Empoli and Carrarese are set to face each other in a Serie B match on Saturday, September 5, 2026, at the Stadio comunale dei Marmi. The upcoming fixture follows a recent defeat for Empoli against Mantova.

Empoli coach Guido Pagliuca expressed pride in his squad, noting a commitment to prioritizing youth players from the club's academy. He also voiced frustration regarding the absence of Empoli supporters, who are barred from attending the match due to a stadium section closure stemming from an incident a year ago.

Carrarese enters the match having recently added several players to their roster. Historical data shows a home advantage for Carrarese in professional matches played at their stadium, though Empoli has struggled with away form, failing to secure an external victory since January 2026.
