Empoli loses a piece ahead of Torino

The Torino-Empoli challenge will be staged on Sunday at 12:30 p.m. Zanetti’s side, however, will have to forgo Akpa Akpro, who suffered a right hamstring injury.

This was announced by the Azzurri club itself: “Empoli Football Club informs that the checks carried out on the player Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro showed a medium-low grade injury of the right hamstring. The athlete has already started the rehabilitation path with the Azzurri medical staff.”

At the moment Empoli occupies the 15th place in the standings and in the first 8 days they have won 7 points. On the last day, Destro and his teammates came close to pulling off a feat against AC Milan, which, however, then managed to win in the dying minutes with goals from Ballo Touré and Leao.
