Empoli can leap into the top ten with a win
Despite coming from Serie B after being relegated in 2019, Empoli have exceeded expectations this season. In fact, not many predicted that the Azzurri would be challenging for the top ten as with 20 points they are two points away from Lazio at ninth. Moreover, Empoli are on a two-game undefeated run in which they beat Fiorentina at home drew away to Torino.
Notably, no other team in Serie A has a higher average of two or more goals in their matches with 73%. However, defensively coach Andreazzoli’s team is not a fan of clean sheets as the Blues have just one this season. Nevertheless, on the offensive side, Empoli scored in all of their last five matches, and with a full squad at Adreazzoli’s disposal, the Azzurri look poised for a win here.
Udinese looking for a positive result
Udinese were part of an enthralling game on Thursday as they drew 4-4 with Lazio in Rome. Furthermore, the Bianconerri were trailing by a goal and two men down before equalizing in the 10th minute of injury time. However, having the joint most draws in Serie A with seven has left Luca Gotti’s team with 16 points despite suffering the least defeats among the bottom ten teams.
Looking at their away record, Udinese are not very fond of playing on the road. To point out, the Zebras won one drew three, and lost three of their matches away. Still, watch out for goals when Udinese play on opponent’s soil. As five of their last ten Serie A away games saw at least six-match goals and both teams scored in seven of them. Hence, we expect another high-scoring game.
Empoli vs Udinese Prediction
It’s one of those matches that bookies have no favorites with Empoli’s win paying 2.67 while Udinese’s win has odds of 2.76. Hence, it will be difficult to predict a winner especially since Empoli have just one win at home this season.
Nonetheless, with both Empoli and Udinese having a high average of goals in their recent matches, 1.93 for over 2.5 goals at Vbet seems a good bargain. Moreover, the last two h2h matches also saw over 2.5 goals.
In addition, Empoli’s last 13 matches saw two or more goals while Udinese’s last five away matches also saw the same number of goals.
As a result of all these facts and stats, we will back over 2.5 goals since the odd are very high and the probability is 66%. And for our second prediction, we will back a combo chosen from Vbet with a double chance and both teams to score.
