Leaders Napoli will challenge Empoli in the continuation of Serie A week 8 this season. Napoli's performance has been quite impressive so far, although at the beginning they slipped a little by feeling defeated, but they were able to quickly recover and achieve victory after victory. Empoli is not a very strong team, so Napoli should be able to finish this match with a victory.
Empoli's advantage that can be seen is that they will play as hosts, that's all. While there are no other advantages that they can show from their statistics or from others. Conte will also definitely prepare his team as well as possible to ensure they can bring home 3 points.
Yes, of course Napoli should not underestimate Empoli, especially as you say they are not beaten while playing at home. Empoli can make a surprise in this battle if Napoli underestimated Empoli, but I think Conte is not the type of coach who underestimated his opponent, he would definitely do the best that was his opponent. In addition, this victory is very important to stay firm at the top of the standings.
The presence of Lukaku in Napoli made Conte's squad almost perfect this season. You can say that so far Conte and Lukaku, a partner whose registration can make Lukaku sharper this season with Napoli, this is proven Lukaku currently managed to provide 4 assists and goals 3 in 7 matches. It seems that not only Lukaku whose performance has improved, even Napoli, who have difficulty penetrating the top, at least at least at the beginning of this season.
