Fiorentina will be back to action in the Serie A with a home game against struggling Empoli on Monday. The hosts go into this match placed fourth while Empoli are 18th after a slow start to the campaign. Fiorentina can solidify their top four hopes with a win here. Three points could nudge them two places ahead, to second. A seven-game unbeaten run will be a massive boost for them here. In their last outing, they had a big result, beating champions Napoli 3-1. That was their fourth win in seven matches. In 11 Serie A matches at home, Fiorentina have not suffered a loss. In that run of 11 league matches at home, Fiorentina have posted seven wins. However, they have just four clean sheets in 18 league matches at home. While they come into this game as firm favorites, Fiorentina have managed just one win in five matches against Empoli. Each of Empoli’s last four matches produced over 2.5 goals.

Empoli haven't had their dream start to the season. After eight matches in Serie A, they have just one win. They’ve struggled in attack as well, failing to score in their last two games, extending their poor run in attack. Empoli have scored one goal in the last nine matches. They are coming into this game after a 0-0 draw with Udinese; the second in three that Empoli avoided defeat. That however doesn’t mask the fact that they have just two clean sheets in their last nine matches. Away from home, Enpoli have no win in 12 matches in Serie A.
