Watch Empoli FC Vs. AC Milan Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, How To Watch Mid-Week Serie A Match Online
AC Milan has spent nearly $230 million to bolster their side over the past two seasons, according to The Sun, and yet they sit in 16th place on the Serie A table, while newly promoted side Empoli FC occupies the 17th position. The two teams will meet on Thursday in the final match of Round Six of the 2018/2019 season in a game that will live stream from Stadio Carlo Castellani.
But the Milan side, the 18-time Italian top-flight champions, may face a tougher test than they expect against Empoli, with the possibility that at least two of their most important players could be sidelined for the match. Manager Gennaro Gattuso said on Wednesday that striker Gonzalo Higuain may sit out the match with a pre-existing injury that was aggravated in the weekend’s match against Atalanta, according to the Four Four Two site.
“His flexor tendon was bothering him, it’s an old scar,” Gattuso said about his Argentine star. “We’ll see if he’s fit to play.”
Italian forward Patrick Cutrone is also in doubt for the trip to Empoli, according to SB Nation. If Cutrone, who missed training on Monday with an injury, cannot take part in the Empoli match, Gattuso will be left without a reliable striker.
