Team News

Empoli
Inter
  • Empoli should reverse to a 4-3-1-2 this weekend as Filippo Ranocchia could be handed a start in midfield.
  • Kristjan Asllani will play in front of the defence due to Hakan Calhanoglu's muscular injury, while Davide Frattesi is a strong candidate to start after scoring last weekend.

Prediction

  • Empoli's humiliating 7-0 defeat against Roma cost Paolo Zanetti his job, which lead the club to appoint Aurelio Andreazzoli as their head coach for the third time.
  • The Azzurri are the only team yet to score in Serie A and will try to get off the mark against Inter, who continued their perfect start in the league with a 5-1 demolition of AC Milan last weekend, but also struggled to rescue a late point after a largely poor performance against Real Sociedad earlier this week.
  • Simone Inzaghi will need to get his squad rotations right ahead of a highly congested schedule in the upcoming weeks.
