The encounter between Empoli FC and Juventus Turin on May 22, 2023, at the Carlo Castellani, has a lot of football fans excited. Empoli enters this game after a 1-1 tie with Sampdoria in Serie A. In the game, Empoli had 58% of the possession and three of its 15 attempts on goal were successful. The lone Empoli player to score was Roberto Piccoli in the 93rd minute.
In contrast, Sampdoria had 13 shots on goal, just three of which were successful. Alessandro Zanoli made a 34-foot field goal to score for Sampdoria. Recent times have seen few occasions when Empoli hasn't bowed. In fact, Empoli has given up nine goals despite having had goals scored against them in six of their previous six games.
After losing to Sevilla in the Europa League match on their last occasion, Juventus and its supporters are hoping for a better result this time. Juventus enjoyed a 41% possession advantage and had 17 successful goal-scoring efforts. Juventus only had one scorer, Duan Vlahovi, who did it in the 65th minute. Sevilla made 28 efforts at goal, ten of which were successful.
Sevilla's goals came from Suso (71′) and Erik Lamela (95′). In extra time, Sevilla prevailed. In their last six matches, Juventus has netted nine goals. Juventus has also scored in each of those contests. They have witnessed 5 goals scored by their opponents throughout that time. It will be interesting to see whether that trend can carry over to the upcoming encounter.

Prediction:
In our opinion, Empoli will need favorable circumstances in order to score goals against Juventus, who we believe might score at least once in order to take the lead. As a consequence, we believe Juventus will lead 0-1 at the break. I'm ready for this.
Head To Head:
Empoli has won one of their most recent straight-on meetings against Juventus, which dates back to 25/02/2017, while the number of draws is still zero. Throughout the course of those games, the two clubs combined for a total of 16 goals, with 4 for the Azzurri and 12 for Juve.
As a result, 2.67 goals are scored on average every game. On October 21, 2022, in Serie A's match day 11, these two teams last faced off in a league match, with Juventus defeating Empoli 4-0. Juventus controlled 43% of the possession in that game and seven of their 21 shots were successful.
Moise Kean ( 8′ ), Weston McKennie ( 56′ ), and Adrien Rabiot ( 82′, 94′ ) scored the goals. Empoli had 12 endeavors at the objective with 4 of them on track.
Team News:
Due to a heavy absence list on Monday, Max Allegri will need to rearrange his squad, and adjustments may be made to the Juventus starting Eleven from Seville. Danilo and Juan Cuadrado have been suspended, Nicolo Fagioli has a broken collarbone, and Mattia De Sciglio, Leonardo Bonucci, and Paul Pogba have all been ruled out for the season.
Tommaso Barbieri or Samuel Iling-Junior should start on the right wing in place of Cuadrado and De Sciglio, with Alex Sandro perhaps replacing Danilo at the back. Federico Chiesa will play in his 200th Serie A game, probably from the bench, as he attempts to increase his total of 68 goal-inclusions thus far (36 of his own and 32 bits of help).
Dusan Vlahovic and Arkadiusz Milik are vying for the front-starting spot once more. Koni De Winter, a loanee from Juventus, and Tommaso Baldanzi won't be available to Empoli in the interim since the latter has been selected for Italy's Under-20 World Cup campaign.
