The Old Lady to clash with Empoli in a crucial Serie A match.

Juventus are all set to host Empoli in their upcoming Serie A 2024-25 fixture on February 2. The Old Lady are in the fifth spot in the league table after their average performances. Empoli are having a below-average season as they reside in the second half of the Serie A points table. The visitors will be eyeing three points against an average-performing Juve.

Juventus fell prey to Napoli in their last league match and because of this, they will be low on confidence. Out of their 22 league matches this season they have 13 draws to their name. This shows Juventus have many times dropped points just because they were unable to give the final finishing to their matches in Serie A.

Empoli also will be looking for three points as they are having a below-average season. Securing some points in the match against Juventus will surely give them a confidence boost for the rest of the season. They just have been able to win four matches in 22 league games.

Kick Off:

Sunday, February 2, 05:00 PM IST

Location: Allianz Stadium, Torino, Italy

Form:

Juventus: D-W-D-L-L

Empoli: L-D-L-L-D

Players to Watch

Randal Kolo Muani (Juventus)

A striker from France who recently joined the Old Lady is picking up his pace in Italy. Randal Kolo Muani scored a goal for Juventus in their previous Serie A game against Napoli. This will be an important chance for Kolo Muani to shine for his side as he is capable of scoring goals for his side.

Sebastiano Esposito (Empoli)

Although Sebastiano Esposito is on a loan from Inter Milan, he has come up with decent performances for Empoli. He has scored eight goals in 18 league games for Empoli. For their upcoming game, the visitors can rely on the Italian attacker as he can find spaces in opponents’ defence with his skills.
