Meeting Highlights…DJALO AND TEAM
As for Djalò, he played a small part with the team, now all the physical and athletic assessments must be carried out, given that he is returning from a cruciate injury even if he had already worked with Lille. Little by little we will insert it and it is a resource for us. The team is doing well and we know the importance of the match against Empoli and we want to do well.
…ABOUT MATCH
We worked on our limits. We are physically and mentally well. We know that tomorrow we have to win. Empoli changed coaches and Nicola presented himself very well against Monza with three goals scored and zero conceded and he gave a lot of solidity to the team. You have to have great respect for Empoli knowing that it is a complicated match.
…CHAMPIONSHIP
It's not a direct clash. After Inter-Juve, let's call it that, there is also Milan. They have scored more points than last year and have been through the worst period. They have what it takes to get back into the Scudetto fight. Let's think about ourselves to get the 3 points. It's not easy. Empoli won here in our first year. They're a quality team. They're capable of playing. Once the match has been played, we'll see what we've done. The important thing is to stay balanced . Is the most important thing.

Davide Nicola
Manager on Empoli…DIFFICULTY OF MATCH
We face a team that has no weak points. The week of work we did was a week in which we prepared well. For us it is important to define our identity, this makes the difference. To accomplish important feats we must have knowledge and awareness of ourselves.
…RETURNS
Pezzella and Baldanzi returned, it was an opportunity to try new things, the challenge against Juventus will be a good test.
…POSSIBLE OPTIONS
I don't think Baldanzi and Cancellieri don't adapt to this formation, we have principles and we're not rigid in our way of being on the pitch. We want to play all the players who bring unpredictability and quality. They are compatible with our way of staying on the pitch, obviously we expect everyone's help.
