Inter Milan will square off with Empoli FC in an Italian Serie A match at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on May 6. 
 
The Big Grass Snake secured a 2-1 win over Udinese Calcio away in their previous league match which was played on May 1.

The defending champions are undefeated in their last four matches at home in Serie A having registered three wins and one draw at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
 
“I'm happy about that but even more so that we managed to win a difficult game,” Inter striker Lautaro Martinez said. 
 
“Udinese are very tough, physical opponents but we came out on top and we're delighted. After Bologna, we needed to show even more unity. We have to be like brothers out there because we need to win them all. 
 
"We're all pulling in the same direction. “There are three games left and they're going to be huge but we're focusing on one game at a time. We know what we have to do now: just win."

Meanwhile, Empoli succumbed to a 3-1 defeat to Torino FC at home in their previous league match which was played on May 1. 
 
The Blues have lost two of their last three matches in this competition having defeated SSC Napoli before they took on Empoli. 
 
Empoli are winless in their last nine matches on the road in Serie A having registered five draws and four defeats as the visitors.
 
The last meeting between Inter and Empoli in a league game was on 27 October 2021. 
 
Inter secured a comfortable 2-0 win over Empoli in a match that was played at Stadio Carlo Castellani which is equipped with an athletics track for long jump and a running track.
