On Thursday night, Empoli host Empoli in Serie A, as both teams look to get their league campaigns back on track.

Both of these teams have endured poor starts to their Serie A campaigns, as Empoli have picked up just four points so far this season, while AC Milan have won just one point more from their four games.

Empoli have suffered three defeats in their last four Serie A games after opening the campaign with a 2-0 home win over Cagliari. In their last league game, the home side suffered a 3-1 defeat at Sassuolo.

Empoli have a poor recent home record in the Italian top-flight, suffering six defeats in their last nine outings on home soil. They have also kept just one clean sheet in their last ten league games on their own patch.
