Torino will be looking to win the game

Empoli host Torino at the Stadio Carlo Castellani in Serie A on Sunday, with both sides having similar seasons so far.

Empoli are currently 14th in the league, seven points behind their opponents. Aurelio Andreazzoli's side have been in poor form recently and have only won one of their last 18 games across all competitions. That win came last time out when they beat Napoli 3-2. They will hope to take that momentum into the game against Torino on Sunday.

Torino are currently 11th in the league, with nothing left to play for this season. Ivan Juric's side have been in strong form of late and are unbeaten in their last five games. They will look to extend that streak with a win against Empoli on Sunday.

Neither side have anything left to play for but will be looking to end their season on a strong note.


Empoli vs Torino Head-to-Head

It's hard to choose between the two sides based on their recent head-to-head record, with both sides having won one of their last five meetings against each other.

The two sides played out a 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture earlier this season. Tommaso Pobega and Marko Pjaca's early goals were canceled out by Simone Romagnoli and Andrea La Mantia to make sure the spoils were shared on the night.
