Speaking to the media during today's press conference, coach Stefano Pioli insisted that his team kows how important the fixture against Empoli is. Here are his words:

On the form of Juventus who are improving their results with coach Massimiliano Allegri, he said:
"If I am afraid of Juventus? I'm afraid of Empoli tomorrow. I watched the first leg game, and they could be able to put us in difficulty.”
