In this tightly contested match, Empoli FC managed to secure a 1-0 victory over FC Como at the Carlo Castellani stadium. The decisive moment came from Pietro Pellegri, who found the back of the net in the 46th minute of the second half. Despite having fewer corner kicks with a total of three compared to Como's six, Empoli showed more efficiency in capitalizing on their chances in front of goal.

Empoli's defense should be credited for holding Como to just two shots on target, while the visiting side struggled with their accuracy, evidenced by ten shots off target. This inefficiency in finishing was pivotal, as Como failed to convert their offensive efforts into goals. The home side also displayed substantial defensive work, though it came at a cost of 16 fouls, which showed their willingness to disrupt Como's rhythm at the expense of discipline.

In terms of discipline and teamwork, Empoli received a single yellow card, while Como managed to avoid any bookings. Empoli’s pressing and aggressive football, while risky, was effective in neutralizing Como's offensive threats. Despite both teams being caught offside once, it was Empoli who maintained better focus and coordination to minimize disruptions. Their ability to perform under pressure prevailed, securing them the solitary goal needed to claim all three points.
