✅ Stats before the game. In the 13 Serie A home matches against Empoli, Roma have achieved 11 wins and two draws, always finding at least one goal (26 in total, two on average per match). Empoli have set their new record for goals scored in the first six Serie A games of the season (nine goals); the Azzurri have also collected nine points so far, establishing the second best result in their history in the first six Serie A matches of the season (the record is 10 points in 2002/03). Should he not lose, Josè Mourinho would set a new record streak of consecutive home games (42) for a manager in the three-point-a-win era without ever registering a defeat in Serie A; for now he is on a par with Massimiliano Allegri (streak of 2017) at 41 home games in the Italian championship (32V, 9N). The first of the three teams coached by Aurelio Andreazzoli in Serie A was Roma: in 15 games of the 2012/13 championship eight wins, four draws and three defeats.
