Empoli need to find their scoring form in time for their match against Torino, as their relegation troubles keep mounting. This Serie A matchday 31 at the Stadio Carlo Castellani on Saturday will see the hosts finish 18th in the standings with 25 points and the visitors ninth with 44 points. Empoli are in the last relegation spot, but with teams from 13th to 19th separated by just five points, a win could see them move up the table. That said, a win looks difficult on current form, as Empoli have lost their last four league matches. Each of those defeats saw them fail to score a goal, which remains a concern for the hosts. In fact, their tally of 22 goals is the lowest in the division. That remains a concern even at this venue, as Empoli have failed to score a goal in ten of their last 15 home league games.

Torino won the reverse fixture 1-0 and started the round two points behind seventh-placed Lazio. There could be a late European dash for the visitors, who seem to have found form at the right time. Consecutive wins over Udinese and Monza have kept them unbeaten in four matches, giving belief to the side's late push for European places. It is their impressive defensive record that has given Torino fuel for the season, as they conceded just 26 goals in the season. Interestingly, their impressive defensive record has often been marred by their poor scoring record, as they netted only 29 goals this season. Torino need to improve their away form, though, as they have won just two of their last ten away league games, drawing five and losing three.
