✅   Stats before the game.  Empoli have won 7 matches against Torino in Serie A (8D, 3L): against no other team Empoli have more wins in the top flight (as against Cagliari).  Torino have scored in all of their last three games against Empoli in Serie A, after falling short of goals in 10 of their 15 previous top-flight matches. The grenades have never made it to four games in a row with goals against the Tuscans in the tournament.  In eight of the nine matches between Turin and Empoli at the home of the grenades in Serie A, at least one of the two teams did not find the goal. Toro is back from two consecutive clean sheets against the Tuscans and scored three goals in the last match, after falling short of goals in the previous four at home in the tournament. Empoli have only won once on Thursday in Serie A: in April 2015 against Napoli at Castellani (two draws and two defeats in the other four matches played on this day of the week). With six wins in their first 14 games of the season, Empoli have equaled their record of successes at this point in the top flight, recorded only in 2002/03, when they ended the season in 13th place in the standings.
