Latest Empoli vs Juventus football review
Despite a disappointing goalless draw against Roma and just two shots on target, Juventus have started the Thiago Motta era in impressive, proactive fashion. They have started the new season by scoring six goals and conceding none, sitting top of Serie A after their first two games.
Juventus are currently level on points with Udinese, Inter Milan and Torino on seven points. They will be looking to continue their winning streak ahead of their much-anticipated Champions League clash with PSV Eindhoven. Juventus are looking to keep a clean sheet in their first four Serie A games of the season, something they have only achieved five times in their history.
Juventus have the best shot conversion rate in Serie A (21%) and the highest pass completion rate (90%). They will head to the Stadio Castellani on Saturday full of confidence, looking for a seventh win in eight away trips here.
Empoli, despite their poor home record against Juventus, shocked Juve with a 4-1 win less than two years ago and held them to a 1-1 draw in their last meeting in January. Empoli remain unbeaten in 2024-25, having won at Catanzaro in the Coppa Italia, drawn twice and won 2-1 at Roma in Serie A.
Despite missing the guidance of Roberto D'Aversa due to a touchline ban, Empoli have made a positive start, unbeaten in their first three games of the season and extending their unbeaten run at home to six in all competitions. Juventus will have to fight hard for the three points, but with their new form and the integration of their new signings, they are likely to return to their usual form and continue to put pressure on their title rivals.
