Looking at the lineups, Roma's rocking some impressive squad depth, featuring talents like Matías Soulé who's been putting out a great show, sporting an 89.8% accurate pass rate and pushing one in the net. Not to forget Paulo Dybala and Bryan Cristante, each showing some versatility with a goal under their belt. The flamboyant shot-stopper, Mile Svilar, has also been impressive between the sticks, with a whopping eight saves this season.
Over at Empoli, their squad runs a bit thin. While they've got Alberto Grassi landing a shot in the net and the safe hands of Marco Silvestri in goal, the statistics don't lie, and the reality is that they're a few feet short of the high bar Roma has set this season.
Looking at the history books, Roma has a habit of trampling over Empoli in previous bouts, even recording a Darwinian 7-0 thrashing back in September 2023. A sudden leap in evolution by Empoli leading to two 2-1 victories is intriguing, though whether it's attributable to divine intervention or mere fluke, remains to be seen.
Now, I'm not one to dig into the world of mathematics, but a funny fact: Roma appears to have three times as many victories in their season record than Empoli and their recent winnings would make Icarus blush with pride. Empoli, dear folks, looks like they've been flying a bit too close to the sun in their recent matches.
Nibbling on all these statistical tidbits, I would wager on Roma to continue their domineering performance. So here it is:
