Empoli VS AC Milan live preview Serie A

Empoli：

Empoli finds themselves in a precarious position after recent struggles, losing to Lazio and drawing with relegation rivals Cagliari around the Christmas period. Currently inside the drop zone, they are only one point above rock-bottom Salernitana.The team's challenges extend beyond the current coach, Andreazzoli, reaching back to the tenure of former manager Paolo Zanetti. Throughout 2023, Empoli experienced a high number of losses, with only Almeria (24) losing more matches across Europe's top five leagues.In the current season, Empoli holds the unfortunate record of winning the fewest points from home matches in Italy's top flight (five). Additionally, they have scored the fewest goals as hosts (also five). This lack of offensive prowess is a continuation of a trend, as Empoli failed to score in no less than 23 games last year.

 AC Milan：

Having secured victories in four of their last six league matches, AC Milan, following a series of four games without a win, continued their positive momentum by defeating Cagliari on Tuesday night.Facing Cagliari in the last-16 of the Coppa Italia, coach Stefano Pioli fielded an unfamiliar XI, leading to a convincing 4-1 victory at San Siro. Luka Jovic scored twice, with debutant Chaka Traore and Rafael Leao also finding the net. With this triumph, AC Milan sets up a quarter-final clash against Lombardy rivals Atalanta BC next week.As they return to Serie A action, AC Milan currently trails city rivals Inter Milan by nine points and sits seven points behind second-placed Juventus in the league standings.

Analysis：

All signs indicate a likely victory for Milan at the Castellani, where they have maintained an unbeaten record in Serie A. Given Empoli's consistent struggles in the attacking third, Milan is poised to secure a win, allowing them to stay within reach of both Inter and Juventus in the league standings.
