Ghana midfielder, Afriyie Acquah has been ruled out of Empoli’s game against AC Milan on Thursday.
The Torino has been one of Empoli's top performers in the season.
However, the energetic middleman picked up an injury in the defeat to Sassuolo on matchday five.
Acquah limped off as early in the 14th minute after a muscle problem.
The Blues are looking to bounce back from successive defeats as they welcome the former Italian Champions to the Stadio Carlo Castellani tonight.
