The action continues in round 29 of the Italian Serie A as Torino and Empoli lock horns at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday. Paolo Vanoli’s men are unbeaten in their last five home games against Empoli in the league and will be looking to extend this nine-year run.

Torino were left disappointed last Saturday when they gave up their lead twice before settling for a 2-2 draw against Parma at the Ennio Tardini Stadium.

However, with that result, Vanoli’s men have gone three consecutive games without defeat — claiming two wins and one draw — and are unbeaten in 10 of their 11 league outings since late December.

Torino have picked up 35 points from their 28 Serie A matches so far to sit 11th in the league standings, five points behind 10th-placed Udinese.

Empoli, on the other hand, continue to struggle for results at the wrong end of the table as they suffered a 1-0 defeat against AS Roma at the Carlo Castellani Stadium last time out.

Roberto D'Aversa’s men have gone 13 consecutive games without a win in the league, losing 10 and claiming three draws since a 4-1 victory over Hellas Verona on December 8.

With 22 points from 28 Serie A matches, Empoli are 18th in the league standings, two points adrift of 17th-placed Parma just above the relegation zone.
