Serie A Relegation Battle: Empoli and Verona at Risk, Como and Cagliari See Hope

The relegation battle in Serie A is intensifying, with Empoli and Verona facing increasing pressure. Empoli’s situation has become more precarious following their 3-0 defeat at Udinese, marking their fourth negative result in five matches. Their relegation odds have shortened from 3.50 to 2.75 in just a week.

Verona’s prospects have also worsened dramatically, with their odds dropping from 4.00 to 2.75 after their loss to Milan at San Siro. Parma’s odds remain stable at 1.75, despite suffering their fourth consecutive defeat against Roma, which led to Fabio Pecchia’s dismissal as manager.

While Monza remains at the bottom with relegation odds of 1.05, Lecce’s situation has improved slightly, now at 6.00. Cagliari and Como have seen more significant improvements, with odds of 7.00 and 10.00 respectively, the latter benefiting from an away victory against Fiorentina.

Genoa appears to be in a comfortable position with odds of 20.00 following their 2-0 win over Venezia. Meanwhile, Di Francesco’s team maintains odds of 1.10, indicating they are still considered at high risk of relegation.

As the season progresses, the relegation battle continues to evolve, with some teams finding hope while others face increasing challenges in their fight for Serie A survival.
