It’s bottom versus top in Serie A this weekend as Empoli welcome Inter Milan to Stadio Carlo Castellani. This Serie A matchday five will be played on Sunday with the hosts bottom on zero points and the visitors top with 12 points ahead of this round. Empoli lost 7-0 to Roma in their last league game which was the first time they conceded seven goals in a top-flight match. They have lost each of their four Serie A matches this season, each time failing to score. That has put more pressure on the hosts to improve but coming up against Inter isn’t going to help. Empoli have failed to score in their last eight Serie A home matches against Inter, underlining the herculean effort they need to improve their fortunes here.

Inter are coming off a 1-1 draw against Real Sociedad in the midweek Champions League match. That result left the team frustrated with the coach singling out that every player has to improve. Inter would be happy getting back to the league engagements, having won their four Serie A matches so far. The last two saw them score nine goals in aggregate, so the morale will also be high. The Nerazzurri have kept three clean sheets in this season which goes in line with their historic record against Empoli. Going back to last season, Inter have won 11 of their last 12 Serie A matches with only a defeat to Napoli sticking out. Even on the road, they have won five of their last six away Serie A matches giving them an edge for this encounter.
