The home side currently sits in 19th place, having amassed 25 points from 4 wins, 13 draws, and 17 losses. In their penultimate match, they drew at home against Venezia (2-2). In their last outing, they lost away to Fiorentina (2-1). This team is not significantly affected by home advantage, with similar results at home and on the road. In their last 30 matches, they have recorded just 1 win, 5 draws, and 9 losses as visitors, scoring 16 goals and conceding 31. At home, they have 1 win, 5 draws, and 9 losses, with 7 goals scored and 25 conceded. Over their last 10 home league games, Empoli has achieved 4 draws and 6 losses, earning only 4 points from a possible 30. They have not won any of their last 10 home matches in this competition. The most common scoreline at half-time in their home matches has been 0-0, occurring in 11 of 16 games. Defensive solidity has not been their strong suit, as they have conceded goals in 9 of their last 10 league matches. Furthermore, in their home games, there has been a tendency for low-scoring matches, with less than 3 goals occurring in 11 of their last 16 home fixtures. Out of 34 games in the competition, they have never managed to turn around a score after conceding the first goal in 17 matches. There is one notable highlight from the last 16 matches played at home: they scored 3 of their 7 goals during the minutes (46′-60′). The team enters this unmotivated fixture following a 2-1 defeat against Fiorentina, where their only goal was netted by Mattia de Sciglio. The home team usually adopts a 3-4-3 tactical system, focusing on quick transitions down the flanks. Their main attacking threats include Sebastiano Esposito, Jacopo Fazzini, and Ola Solbakken. They will be without Liam Henderson and Alberto Grassi, who are suspended, as well as Nicolas Haas, Tyronne Ebuehi, Christian Kouamé, Pietro Pellegri, Szymon Żurkowski, and Youssef Maleh, all of whom are injured.

Lazio comes into this match after a 2-2 draw with Parma, where Pedro scored both goals for the team. The visiting side typically employs a 4-3-3 tactical formation, with Mattia Zaccagni, Gustav Isaksen, and Taty Castellanos leading the attack. They often channel their offensive efforts down the right side to exploit the width provided by defender Adam Marusic. They will be missing Manuel Lazzari, Nuno Tavares, and Patric due to injury.
