Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Empoli, 18th position with 4 points and a negative goal difference of -5
Fiorentina, 4th position with 17 points and a positive goal difference of +7

Empoli won the Serie A Week 9 game on Monday 23 October 2023 at the Artemio Franchi Stadium in Florence, Italy. Empoli finally got their second game winning the Tuscan Derby. The match is constantly played at a high pace, with Fiorentina constantly maintaining control of the game, but with Empoli becoming almost always more dangerous thanks to the rapid counterattacks of their trident.

The victory also helped Empoli to leave the relegation zone. Empoli climbed from the 18th to the 17th position.

The match broke the deadlock in the 21st minute. Francesco Caputo defeated Fiorentina goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano with a right-footed shot to the center. The assist is by Alberto Grassi.

Empoli with another goal in the 81st minute. Emmanuel Gyasi scored with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Jacopo Fazzini.

✅    Stats before the game: Fiorentina and Empoli drew in both matches of the last championship (0-0 against Castellani and 1-1 against Franchi) and only once did they have an impact in three consecutive Serie A matches: in the period between 1987 and 1988 (in that case once 1-1 and twice 0-0).  Empoli have won only two of the 13 Serie A matches played in Florence against the Viola (5N, 6L), the last of which was on 15 April 2017, when Giovanni Martusciello’s Azzurri won 2-1 over Fiorentina. Paulo Sousa (El Kaddouri scored, Tello and Pasqual scored from a penalty). Only Milan (12) has a longer unbeaten streak at home than Fiorentina in Serie A: 11 games in a row at the Franchi without losing for Viola (7W, 4D), a series that began with the 1-1 draw against Empoli. Fiorentina have gained at least 17 points after the first eight Serie A matches for the third time in the three points per win era (in 1998/99 and 2015/16 with 18 points on both occasions); in neither case have they ever reached 20 in the first nine (with a victory over Empoli, this would be a new record for the Viola club since 1994/95).  Empoli have collected only four points so far: on the three occasions in which they collected less than seven points in the era of three points for a win (therefore in the event of a failure to win in Florence) in the first nine matches of a Serie A championship, they have always been relegated at the end of the championship (2018/19, 2016/17 and 2003/04).
