Current Form: Juventus vs Empoli
The Bianconeri come into this game having suffered their first defeat of the season - a 2-0 reversal to Genoa last round. Although Napoli and Partenopei fans would have been pleased to see Juventus finally stumble, it really doesn't help the Partenopei in their Scudetto ambitions as La Vecchia Signora still boast a whopping 15 point margin over them and the rest of the chasing pack, so bar a shocking collapse between now and May, the Scudetto will be remaining in Turin. And in addition, the loss to Genoa did come after Juventus had to fight from 2-0 down to win 3-2 on aggregate against a tough Atletico Madrid side in the round of 16, so certainly, the Grifone were not facing the Turin giants at full strength when they welcomed them to the Stadio Luigi Ferraris just a few days later.
Nonetheless, Massimiliano Allegri will be keen on seeing his side get back to winning ways as they are still unbeaten at home. Notably, the hosts have won eight of their last nine home fixtures and have an excellent record against struggling Empoli, who will still have hopes at stealing a point.
The Azzurri sit in 17th place, just one point above the drop zone and secured a hard-fought victory over fellow relegation candidates Frosinone last time out. They'll be hoping that bringing back Aurelio Andreazzoli - who was fired last November in lieu of Giuseppe Iachini - will help them steer the wobbly ship as they are competing with Udinese, Bologna, and SPAL for an opportunity to be featuring in the top flight next season.
