Against Empoli, Milan will want to maintain continuity, at least in terms of results, following their Europa League victory against Slavia Prague, and secure their grip on the third position in the standings, with the chance to surpass Juventus if they fail to achieve a positive result against Atalanta.
Victory, if achieved, would mark another historic milestone for Stefano Pioli at the helm of Milan, as pointed out by Milan Press.
In the event of success, in fact, the Parma-born coach would surpass the 350 points accumulated as a coach on the Milan bench in Serie A (currently at 348), becoming the second coach to reach this milestone with the Rossoneri in the era of three points per victory, after Carlo Ancelotti (557).
