Empoli enters this match after a home draw, 1-1, against Fiorentina. The visiting team typically plays in a 5-2-3 tactical system, favoring a more defensive style, attacking through the central corridor. Empoli is a team that likes to play in their midfield, aiming to avoid conceding too much space to the opponent. When they go for a counter-attack, they usually do so through the left flank, intending to exploit the depth provided by the left-back Liberato Cacace. The visiting coach will be without Francesco Caputo, Alberto Grassi, and Tyronne Ebuehi as they are currently in the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Elia Caprile, Sebastiano Luperto, Liberato Cacace, Ardian Ismajli, Sebastian Walukiewicz, Viktor Kovalenko, Răzvan Marin, Youssef Maleh, Matteo Cancellieri, Nicolò Cambiaghi, Alberto Cerri.
Coach: A. Dionisi.
