Calcio Padova - Empoli

Calcio Padova face a significant test of their defensive resolve as they navigate a challenging period without the services of the suspended Giovanni Giunti and the injured Gianluca Caprari. The hosts welcome Empoli to Stadio Euganeo for this matchday 11 Serie B encounter on 7 November 2026, aiming to extend a three-match unbeaten run that has seen them pick up seven points from a possible nine. The expected XI, spearheaded by Luca Moro and Gabriele Artistico, will look to exploit a visiting defense that has struggled for consistency in recent weeks.

Empoli arrive in search of a much-needed revival after a difficult stretch of results, including a recent 2-2 draw against Juve Stabia. Their last visit to this venue ended in a 1-0 defeat on 12 April 2026, a result they will be keen to overturn. With both sides eager to climb the table, this contest promises a tactical battle between Padova's recent defensive stability and Empoli's desperation to find a winning formula away from home.
