A. Rabiot has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by Danilo.
GOOOOAAALLL!!!! That's the cherry on the icing!!! Danilo surges forward to latch onto Locatelli's throughball, and squares to Rabiot in the box. He has the easiest of finishes the stroke the ball home, for his second of the match, and makes it a rousing 4-0 to Juventus!
What a run from Danilo, what a pass from Locatelli, and what a calm finish from Rabiot. Overall, you simply have to say - what a performance from the Bianconeri!
90' +1
We're into five minutes of injury time as Juventus close in on three points at Allianz Stadium.
89'
D. Degli Innocenti enters the game and replaces N. Haas.
Haas comes off in Empoli's latest change, and Duccio Degli Innocenti will replace him for the final few minutes.
85'
S. Iling-Junior enters the game and replaces F. Kostić.
Kostic, like Cuadrado, has been absolutely sublime out wide, but comes off for the last few minutes, giving winger Samuel Iling-Junior the chance to come on for his debut.
82'
A. Rabiot has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by J. Cuadrado.
GOOOOAAALLL!!! That'll seal it!!! Kostic wins another corner, and Cuadrado swings it in again. Finding the back post this time, Rabiot meets the ball with a thumping header, which despite being clawed out of the goalmouth by Vicario, did indeed cross the line!!! The goal-line technology confirms Juve's third goal, and at 3-0, they're coasting to victory here in Turin.
Once again Cuadrado comes up trumps from the corner, now having two assists from each side in the second half!
80'
Miretti breaks forward for the Old Lady and attempts to find Rabiot running through on goal, but a well-timed intervention from De Winter takes the ball away from him.
79'
Alex Sandro enters the game and replaces D. Rugani.
F. Miretti enters the game and replaces M. Kean.
Denied a second goal by the offside flag, Kean won't be adding to his tally further, as he comes off for Bianconeri youngster Fabio Miretti.
Rugani comes off in Juve's latest change, and there'll likely be a change in formation with the introduction of attacking left-wing-back Alex Sandro.
75'
L. Henderson enters the game and replaces F. Bandinelli.
S. Lammers enters the game and replaces M. Destro.
Destro has barely had a scrap of attacking ammunition this half, and also comes off for Sam Lammers to see out the game.
Another Empoli change sees Bandinelli withdrawn, and replaced in midfield by Liam Henderson.
74'
There's a painful-looking clash of heads in the box between Empoli teammates Luperto and Haas, and the pair receive treatment as the remaining 20 take advantage of a well-earned rest.
Minute
Description
69'
N. Haas gets yellow.
Haas loses the ball in midfield and goes down, but a free-kick is not coming his way. Juve play on and look to counter, but the Empoli midfielder races back and flies into Milik from behind! The nasty challenge results in a yellow card, and a free-kick right on the edge of Empoli's box.
68'
Rabiot feeds Kostic to his left, who once again crosses for Kean. The striker barely connects with the ball though, sending a glancing header well wide of the target!
66'
L. Paredes enters the game and replaces W. McKennie.
65'
A. Milik enters the game and replaces D. Vlahović.
Second goalscorer McKennie comes off too, and his place in midfield is taken by on-loan PSG man Leandro Paredes.
Juve make their first pair of changes, the first of which sees Vlahovic withdrawn for Arkadiusz Milik up top.
62'
T. Baldanzi enters the game and replaces M. Satriano.
N. Bajrami enters the game and replaces M. Pjaca.
On-loan forward Pjaca has been kept quiet by his parent club's defence, and the Croatian comes off now for Nedim Bajrami to be Empoli's first substitute of the match.
The booked Satriano also comes off, and is replaced in attack by Tommaso Baldanzi.
60'
Pjaca attempts to play in Destro, but the striker's touch is a poor one and the ball rolls beyond Szczesny and behind for a goal kick.
58'
A. Rabiot gets yellow.
M. Satriano gets yellow.
Satriano is also booked for his part in the melee, and the discipline in this game is just starting to wane as we enter the last half hour.
Tempers flare at the other end now, with a crowd of players surrounding Rabiot and Satriano. The pair are eventually separated, and the first yellow card is shown towards Rabiot.
57'
Trying to reach a Kostic ball into the box, Vlahovic goes down under pressure from Bandinelli and is furious, to the extent that he almost starts a scuffle with the Empoli midfielder!
55'
W. McKennie has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by J. Cuadrado.
Stojanovic's low ball into the box takes a series of deflections before finding Luperto, who turns and snatches at a shot which is held by Szczesny!
A fantastic ball in from Cuadrado, and an even better header from McKennie, who gave Vicario absolutely no chance of stopping that.
GOOOOOAAAALLL!!! There's the second!!! After winning a corner following a fast break, Cuadrado whips the ball in for Juventus, and McKennie rises highest at the front post to head beyond Vicario and into the back of the net!!! 2-0 to the Old Lady, and that might just see off any chance of Empoli rescuing this game.
54'
Wide to the right, Satriano skilfully beats Danilo before charging down the byline, until the recovering Juve centre-back slides in to put the ball behind for a corner.
53'
Kean and De Winter tussle for the ball down the left, until Rabiot arrives to barge the Empoli captain to ground and win a throw-in!
51'
Stojanovic's ball into the box is headed clear, but Parisi latches onto it, and fires a half-volley miles over the bar from the edge of the box!
47'
Kostic whips a Juve corner into the area, which is pushed away by Vicario. Rabiot recycles possession and McKennie crosses back in, but this attempt is caught by the Empoli goalkeeper.
46'
Vlahovic kicks off the second half, and this game is back up and running!
45' +2
HALF-TIME: JUVENTUS 1-0 EMPOLI.
45'
We're into two minutes of added time to close out the first half.
44'
Bandinelli races into the box and does superbly to win a corner via a Rugani deflection. He'll have to wait to take it though, as Juve captain Bonucci is down on halfway, and will need some significant attention before play continues.
41'
Another Bandinelli cross from the left is kept out - this time by Szczesny, who punches the ball away to prevent a shooting chance.
40'
Bandinelli's shot from deep takes a wicked deflection, and a late volley from Destro attempts to turn it goalwards, but the ball skews wide!
38'
Locatelli's attempted overhead clearance is woeful, and things worsen for the Juve midfielder as Bandinelli accidentally lands on top of him. He's still down holding his face, and the Italian international may need to he replaced here.
36'
J. Cuadrado gets yellow.
The visitors look to break after holding out a lengthy period of Juve pressure, but Cuadrado slides into Satriano late and catches him, warranting both a foul and a yellow card.
35'
Juve keep the ball in and around the Empoli box, and McKennie looks for Kean on the edge, but the striker's dummy sees the ball roll through and into the arms of Vicario.
30'
McKennie recklessly slides into two successive challenges, missing Parisi but catching Bandinelli late, and the American is rightfully penalised by the referee.
28'
Stojanovic finds Pjaca inside the box, and the on-loan Juve forward's effort from a tight angle is blocked behind by Bonucci!
23'
Bandinelli does brilliantly to keep the ball in play down the left before smashing in a cross on the half-volley, but it finds no-one in blue and Juve deal with the threat.
19'
Kostic whips another inviting cross into Empoli's box, which Vicario comes for but the ball is headed behind for a corner by De Winter!
17'
Kean is put into acres of space by Locatelli as Juventus counter, but he can't find his striking partner Vlahovic with a pass into the box and the opportunity is quenched!
15'
Bandinelli curls a cross towards the back post, where Destro climbs highest to get his head to the ball, but under pressure from Danilo, can't direct it on target!
14'
Another Kostic cross is met by Vlahovic, who flicks it onto Kean, but the goalscorer can't control the ball in the box and it's cleared by the visitors.
10'
Rugani's ball from deep has Kean racing after it, but good defensive work from De Winter blocks the striker off from getting the ball, before the Empoli captain chests it back to his goalkeeper.
8'
M. Kean has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by F. Kostić.
GOOOOAAAALLLL!!! The Bianconeri hit the front!!! Rabiot glides through midfield before feeding Kostic, who swings a cross to the front post from the touchline. Kean ghosts in behind his marker and gets enough contact on the ball to beat Vicario at his near post and put Juventus into a 1-0 lead! A first goal of the season for the Italy international, and it's got the Old Lady off to a flyer!
The run from Rabiot was good, but the cross from Kostic was even better. It was a box packed with blue Empoli shirts, but the ball still managed to find Kean in black and white to put Juventus ahead.

The visitors kick the game off, and we are underway in Turin!
The eighth-placed hosts have had an indifferent start to the season, winning only four of their first 10 games and drawing four others. Their two losses have come in their last four games, but they followed up a 2-0 loss to Milan with a 1-0 win over local rivals Torino last time out.
Hello, and welcome to live coverage of this fixture in Serie A, as Juventus face Empoli at Allianz Stadium.
Empoli sit just two places below Juve in 10th, despite having won just twice in 10 games so far. Their second came in their most recent match against promoted Monza, the same team who consigned Juve to their first defeat of the season four matches ago.
EMPOLI (4-3-1-2): Guglielmo Vicario; Petar Stojanovic, Koni de Winter, Sebastiano Luperto, Fabiano Parisi; Nicolas Haas, Razvan Marin, Filippo Bandinelli; Marko Pjaca; Mattia Destro, Martin Satriano.
JUVENTUS SUBS: Carlo Pinsoglio, Mattia Perin, Alex Sandro, Arkadiusz Milik, Federico Gatti, Fabio Miretti, Matias Soule Malvano, Leandro Paredes, Samuel Iling-Junior, Nicolo Fagioli.
JUVENTUS (3-5-2): Wojciech Szczesny; Daniele Rugani, Leonardo Bonucci, Danilo; Juan Cuadrado, Weston McKennie, Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot, Filip Kostic; Dusan Vlahovic, Moise Kean.
The teams are out on the pitch, and kick-off is just moments away here!
The teams return for the second half, and can the visitors find that extra touch of quality to find an equaliser in Turin?
That's all from us, we hope you enjoyed the game. Until next time, goodbye!
That convincing win for Juve will help to alleviate the pressure on manager Max Allegri, and it sees them rise a place in the table to seventh, above Inter. Empoli drop to 11th on goal difference, but given the fashion in which they wilted in the second half, many sides around them will fancy their chances the next time they face the Blues.
