AC Milan are 7-1 against Empoli since August of 2015, and they’ll have a chance to extend that success on Friday. AC Milan will be playing at home against Empoli at 3:00 p.m. ET. AC Milan have to be feeling especially confident coming into this one: they won as the underdogs last time, and now they’re the favorites.
On Sunday, AC Milan never let their opponents score. Everything went their way against Napoli as they made off with a 4-0 win. It was an even better day for Rafael Leao as he scored two goals for his team.
