AS Roma win the Serie A Week 7 game against Empoli on Sunday 3 October 2021 at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy.  Mourinho’s Roma have won their 6 home games this season, with 16 goals for and only 3 against . Roma have not lost against Empoli in Serie A since February 2007 (0-1 at Castellani): since then seven Giallorossi successes and three draws in 10 total matches.  Roma have won their last five Serie A home games and have not achieved six consecutive domestic league successes since February 2017, with Luciano Spalletti on the bench (15 in that case).  The home victory giving Mourinho another record for most  unbeaten  42 consecutive home Serie A games: establishing the record for a manager in the three points per win era (since 1994/95) in the Serie A.
