Juventus, 6th position with 36 points and a positive goal difference of +16
Empoli, 16th position with 21 points and a negative goal difference of -8
Juventus is on a mission to secure their position within the European zone. Juventus won the Serie A Week 23 match against Empoli on Sunday, February 2, 2025, at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, Italy. Juventus secures its second win of 2025, boosting its chances for a top four finish, currently sitting in fourth place with a slim one-point lead over Lazio and three points ahead of Bologna. Empoli remains steady in the standings with 21 points, just one point clear of Parma, having played the same number of matches.
Following their first defeat of the season in Naples and a disappointing home loss to Benfica in the Champions League, Motta’s squad is redeeming themselves with this victory to get back on track. Meanwhile, Empoli is desperately to achieve a victory that has eluded them since December 8th, holding only a one-point lead over the relegation zone.
Empoli puts up a fight against Juve but loses momentum in the second half due to injuries to Anjorin and Ismajli. Kolo Muani shines for the Bianconeri, scoring twice, while Colombo nearly levels the score for Empoli in the 81st minute. However, Maleh’s second yellow card seals the deal. In the closing moments, Vlahovic’s powerful shot and Conceiçao’s right-footed effort spark celebrations for the Bianconeri. Looking ahead, Motta’s squad will face Como, while D’Aversa’s team will take on Milan at the Castellani.
Renato Veiga is making his first appearance, stepping in for the injured Kalulu in the center of defense alongside Gatti. Di Gregorio will guard the goal, while Savona and Weah take charge of the flanks. McKennie is back in the midfield alongside Locatelli, with Thuram taking a break and starting on the bench. Vlahovic will also start on the bench, as Kolo Muani leads the attack, supported by the familiar trio of Nico Gonzalez, Koopmeiners, and Yildiz.

Juventus fans were left stunned at the Allianz Stadium as Empoli struck first in the 4th minute. Mattia De Sciglio found the net with a close-range header after a corner kick taken by Nicolás González. Later, another corner from Henderson saw Yildiz get a slight touch, allowing De Sciglio to score again by heading the ball through the legs of goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio.

Juventus can breathe a sigh of relief! In the 17th minute, Empoli was awarded a penalty after Esposito’s impressive run and a clever pass to Maleh, who was fouled by Di Gregorio. However, after reviewing the play, Zufferli overturned the decision, ruling that Anjorin’s arm touch was not a penalty.
Juventus leveled the score at 1-1 in the 61st minute when Randal Kolo Muani found the back of the net with a right-footed strike into the bottom left corner. He outmuscled Goglichidze in the box and fired a strong shot past goalkeeper Devis Vásquez, hitting the near post.

Juventus turned the game around and took a 2-1 lead in the 64th minute. Randal Kolo Muani found the net with a left-footed shot into the bottom right corner, thanks to an assist from Timothy Weah. Yildiz then sent a shot toward the center, and Weah, receiving the ball from Yildiz, struck it powerfully towards the goal. However, it deflected off Kolo Muani, leaving Vasquez surprised and unable to react in time.

Juventus clinched a stunning fourth goal in the 92nd minute! Francisco Conceição found the net with a left-footed strike into the bottom right corner. The brilliant assist came from Khéphren Thuram, who delivered an incredible pass to Conceição. With only Vasquez to beat, he coolly finished with a low and powerful right-footed shot. It’s a poker for the Bianconeri, sparking joyous celebrations at the Stadium after a shaky first half.

Before the game kicks off, there’s a special occasion with the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 Trophy on display for everyone to see. Juventus will be among the teams participating in this thrilling 32-team tournament, scheduled to occur in the United States from June 15 to July 13, 2025.
Stats before the game:
Juventus has recently drawn their last two Serie A games against Empoli and has struggled to secure victories in three out of their last four matches (with one loss), following a strong run where they won 10 out of 11 games (with one loss).
On the other hand, Empoli has managed to avoid defeat in just seven of their last 24 Serie A encounters with Juventus (winning three and drawing four), with five of those results occurring in the latter half of the season.
At home, Juventus boasts an impressive record against Empoli, winning 80% of their matches (12 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss), with only Hellas Verona (85%) having a better home win percentage against them among current competitors. Additionally, Empoli has only managed to win one of their last 14 Serie A matches played on Sundays at 12:30, which was a 1-0 victory against Napoli on November 12, 2023, and they have failed to score in 10 of those games.
Player Stats
Empoli striker Sebastiano Esposito has found the back of the net in each of his last four away appearances in Serie A: with a goal he would become the fourth player in the three points for a win era to score in at least five consecutive away games before turning 23, after Alberto Gilardino (six in 2004), Adriano (six in 2004) and Stephan El Shaarawy (seven in 2012).
After his goal against Napoli, Randal Kolo Muani can become the second player to find the back of the net in his first two Serie A appearances for Juventus in the three points for a win era, after Carlos Tevez in August 2013.
