&lt;p&gt;Victory wanted. Bologna and Empoli will compete at the Renato Dall`Ara stadium and will be out on the hunt for three points to continue their campaigns: the hosts have not won for three games (since the 2-1 at home to Cagliari) and come off the back of three consecutive 0-0 scorlines, against Hellas Verona, Napoli and Monza.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thiago Motta’s squad concedes little, but also struggles to score. The same problem up-front as Empoli, partially fixed by Baldanzi in the last game. Against Salernitana he scored the Tuscan side’s first league goal that also brough them their first three points, a real breath of fresh air for Aurelio Andreazzoli’s team who will be looking for an encore against Bologna.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bologna has drawn 0-0 in three consecutive games in Serie A TIM for the first time since February to March 2016, only once before in their history in the league have they recorded four in a row (5 between March and April 1971).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Baldanzi’s goal broke Empoli’s dry spell that lasted 574 minutes in Serie A TIM, since the last goal scored in injury time against Hellas Verona on 28 May (own goal by Magnani). The player hasn’t scored for 247 days since the goal against Inter at the Meazza on 23 January.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Empoli have won seven of the last 11 matches against Bologna in Serie A TIM (3N, 1P), after never achieving a victory in their first seven matches against the Rossoblù in the top flight (4D, 3L).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bologna have lost their last two games against Empoli in Serie A TIM and could suffer three defeats in a row in the league against the Tuscans for the first time in history.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sam Beukema is the player with the most successful passes in this championship (402). The Dutch defender is also one of only two Bologna players, together with Lukasz Skorupski, who have not yet missed a minute in the Serie A TIM 2023/24 season (both playing 540 minutes).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Among the players who have scored at least five goals since the start of last season, there are only four who are younger than Tommaso Baldanzi (born 2003) in the top five European leagues: Mathys Tel (2005), Youssoufa Moukoko (2004), Evan Ferguson (2004) and Jude Bellingham (2003).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: Saelemaekers (Bologna)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: none&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maresca (Palermo &amp;amp; Margani) IV: Santoro , VAR:Serra , AVAR: La Penna&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A TIM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Inter vs Bologna (Saturday 7 October, 15:00 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Empoli vs Udinese (Friday 6 October, 18:30 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
