Massimo Maccarone says he hopes Serie A leaders Fiorentina “will underestimate” Empoli on Sunday.

The Tuscan Derby will take place at the Stadio Artemio Franchi this weekend and the Viola are top of the table.

“It’s nice going to play in the stadium of the Serie A leaders and that will give us extra motivation to do well,” said Big Mac in his Press conference.

“Here at Empoli the derby is very important and we’ll try to give our best because we know how much the fans care about this fixture.

“Here at Empoli the derby is very important and we’ll try to give our best because we know how much the fans care about this fixture.

“We can cause Fiorentina problems by over-running them physically and not giving them the time to think about their passing game.

“I hope the Viola will underestimate us, as that way they’ll be slightly less concentrated.”
