Preview
Milan head into this after a massive 1-0 win over Napoli in their previous Serie A clash last Sunday, which ensured they moved to the top.
Giroud scored the goal which made the difference as Milan moved two points clear at the top having played one match more.
The Rossoneri has been unbeaten since mid-January and are looking to keep this run alive which keeps their Scudetto dream alive.
On the other hand, Empoli’s poor run of form continued with a goalless draw against Genoa last week.
This stretched their winless run to 12 matches across competitions since their Coppa Italia win in mid-December.
Empoli is in 13th place on the table with 32 points and continue their searching for a 9th win this season.
Both sides last met in December, where Milan won 4-2 away from home.
