0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Atalanta BC launch into their encounter with Empoli FC.
5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
10' Empoli FC is showing some good football. However, Empoli FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
15' Atalanta BC are deployed in a 3-4-2-1 today, looking to exploit space against Empoli FC's 3-4-2-1 shape.
20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Liberato Cacace suffering a number of foals already.
24' That is a card for Empoli FC. Sebastiano Luperto will be fuming at that decision.
25' Fresh legs for Empoli FC! Liberato Cacace comes on to replace Sebastian Walukiewicz.
30' Davide Zappacosta, a Italy , has 29 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
35' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
40' Alberto Grassi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 391 appearances.
42' Mario Pasalic doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
47' named a 3-4-2-1 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
51' A stunning finish from Ademola Lookman — that came from absolutely nowhere!
56' Fresh legs for Atalanta BC! Ederson comes on to replace Marten de Roon.
57' The whistle greets Matteo Ruggeri as he departs to be replaced by Hans Hateboer.
61' The supporters are chanting for Francesco Caputo. He replaces M'Baye Niang on 61 minute.
62' The crowd applauds Jacopo Fazzini as he leaves the pitch. Viktor Kovalenko steps in for Empoli FC.
67' Empoli FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
72' Atalanta BC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Empoli FC backline.
73' A tactical swap from Atalanta BC — Teun Koopmeiners on, Aleksei Miranchuk off on 73 minutes.
75' Empoli FC ring the changes. Youssef Maleh has done his job and it is now time for Matteo Cancellieri to step up.
77' That is a card for Empoli FC. Viktor Kovalenko will be fuming at that decision.
81' The referee calls foul for Giorgio Scalvini. He receives a card.
84' A tactical swap from Atalanta BC — Charles De Ketelaere on, Ademola Lookman off on 84 minutes.
