Match preview

Roma will be aiming to close in on the Champions League spots this weekend when they meet with Empoli at the Stadio Olimpico with Jose Mourinho’s men down in sixth still after a loss to Napoli in the last Serie A clash.

It could end up being a great week for Roma. They will see Inter Milan and AC Milan clash at the San Siro, while Juventus have already took an almighty tumble in the league because of a points deduction. It should now pave the way for Mourinho’s side to give the top four a real go.

His men did manage to draw level away to the unstoppable league leaders over the past weekend, as Stephan El Shaarawy scored before a late winner from Napoli.

The Rome side now sit behind Milan in fifth by just one point and behind Inter in second by three points. In reality, it could end up being one of the most thrilling top six battles we’ve seen in Serie A in recent memory.

Empoli are in excellent form since the World Cup. Relegation fears have eased tremendously since the Qatar finals, as Paolo Zanetti has guided his men to a 2-2 draw with Lazio, a 1-0 win over Sampdoria and a fantastic 1-0 win away to Inter.

Last time out, Empoli drew 2-2 with Torino.
