Empoli – Parma »important duel in the struggle to avoid retrogation

The two opponents today have the same goal, namely maintaining in the first echelon of Italian football at the end of this season.

At this moment, Parma is extremely close to this objective, having a six -point advance compared to Venetzia, the first formation below the red line, three stages before the end of the season.

Thus, if it is imposed today, Chivu's team will ensure from a mathematical point of view the participation in Serie A and in the next campaign, regardless of the other results.

On the other hand, for those from Empoli the situation is a little more complicated. Today's hosts occupy the penultimate position in the standings, with 25 points.

However, “azurri” still have real chances of avoiding retrogation, taking into account the fact that the gap to LECCE, the first team above the line, measures only two lengths.
