The Aquile had their worst start to a Serie A season for 54 years, but more than made up for it with this success streak.

They went into the weekend level third with Sampdoria and, as the Blucerchiati drew 2-2 with Milan last night, they can go clear with a win at the Stadio Castellani.

Stefan Radu, Federico Marchetti, Dusan Basta, Keita Balde Diao and Santiago Gentiletti are out of action.

Filip Djordjevic returns to the starting XI after a 4-2 victory over Cagliari on Monday evening, partnered by Stefano Mauri and Antonio Candreva.

Miroslav Klose is ready to come off the bench following his brace in the last round.

Empoli must do without suspended defender Lorenzo Tonelli, while Simone Verdi is still injured.

Veteran forward Massimo Maccarone and youngster Manuel Pucciarelli lead the way, as the Tuscans hope to end their run of three consecutive defeats.

Empoli: Sepe; Laurini, Barba, Rugani, Mario Rui; Croce, Valdifiori, Vecino; Zielinski; Pucciarelli, Maccarone

Empoli bench: Pugliesi, Bassi, Hysai, Bianchetti, Moro, Signorelli, Laxalt, Tavano, Michedlidze, Aguirre, Rovini
