By traveling to 7th-placed Empoli, Juventus Turin, co-leader of this Serie A with Inter Milan, Torino and Udinese, has the opportunity to distance itself from these clubs in the event of a victory at the Stadio Carlo Castellani. The Old Lady is comfortable at Empoli where it has had great success with 6 wins in its last 7 visits. The arrival of Thiago Motta at the helm of the Turin club will have allowed it to rediscover its defensive solidity which was its strength in the past. Juve has still not conceded a goal after 3 matches, signing 2 wins against Como (3-0) and Verona (0-3) then 1 draw against AS Roma (0-0) before the international break.
Empoli, for its part, is 7th overall, just 1 point from the European places. Gyasi’s teammates (2 goals) have had an excellent start to the season with a qualification in the Italian Cup against Catanzaro (4-1) and an unbeaten run in Serie A with 5 points won against Monza (0-0), Rome (1-2) and Bologna (1-1) on the last day. These last two good results against the 5th and 6th teams from the previous season show that this club is capable of feats. Juventus Turin, even if it starts as favorites, has been warned!
