While Juventus will start this game against Empoli as the favourites, there is no telling how the visiting side will react to the challenges sent their way. The hosts need to keep the ball more often and engage their wings, as they usually do when they’re in good form.
They’ve been so late, and their supporters, who will throng the stadium in large numbers, will expect a big victory for them. A triumph, of course, means they’ll qualify for the semifinals of the Coppa Italia and challenge for a title.
Manager Thiago Motta is known to be a disciplinarian who likes his players to use possession-based football to push forward and create spaces in the final third. This will allow Juventus to break the defensive line that Empoli create and use every inch of space available in their attacking half.
Motta’s men will miss the services of Douglas Luiz, Milik, Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Pierre Kalulu, and Renato Veiga on Thursday. This is bound to weigh them down. Luckily, they have others in their squad who can step up and make the most of the chances coming their way.
Juventus predicted lineup vs Empoli (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Savona, Gatti, Kelly, Cambiaso; Thuram, Koopmeiners; Conceicao, McKennie, Yildiz; Muani.
Empoli know they’ll start as the dark horses in this game, but this tag won’t deter them from the challenge.
They’ll be without the services of Tino Anjorin, Mattia Viti, Nicolas Haas, Ola Solbakken, Pietro Pellegri, Saba Sazonov, and Tyronne Ebuehi, among others. However, Empoli’s focus will be on maintaining a defensive shape that’s as strong as possible.
Their lack of clinical nature in the final third, especially in their recent matches, has hurt them a lot, and in this game, they’ll hope to overcome this frailty.
Empoli’s attackers will not get a lot of space for themselves, given that Juve’s defenders are known for their special man-marking abilities. To score, they’ll have to create a niche for themselves using link-up play and even short passing.
Alternatively, the guests can employ their wingers and fullbacks. They must bomb up and down the flanks and send crosses into the box to help their attackers take shots at the goal and disturb Juve’s hegemony.
Empoli predicted lineup vs Juventus (3-5-2): Vasquez; De Sciglio, Goglichidze, Pezzella; Gyasi, Henderson, Grassi, Maleh, Cacace; Esposito, Colombo.
Bet hereThe home squad start as the favourites in this match, and we expect them to win by a rather comfortable margin. When these two clubs met a few games ago, in Serie A, Juventus beat Empoli by a massive 4-1 scoreline in front of their fans.
Given that this fixture is being played at the same venue, the Turin team are expected to coast to a comfortable victory and book their berth in the Coppa Italia semifinal.
There have been 16 events between these two sides, of which Juventus have won 12. This gives them an advantage ahead of Thursday’s encounter.
We expect to see a total of over two goals on Thursday, most of which are anticipated to come from Juventus. Empoli, however, are no minnows and can be expected to breach the guests’ defence and not let them keep a clean sheet.
This scoring tendency was seen in their recent round game in the Coppa Italia, which they won via penalties over Fiorentina. Juventus, on the other hand, beat Cagliari 4-0 in their previous round.
Empoli’s form has been anything but good of late. Currently, they have lost four out of their last five fixtures, with the other being a draw. Juventus, on the other hand, have been brilliant, scoring ten goals in their last five matches.
