Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Lazio vs Empoli

Lazio 

It wasn’t the return Lazio fans expected as their team lost their first match of the year 2023 to Lecce by 2-1. That was Biancoceleste’s second away defeat in a row and with it they dropped to the fifth position with 30 points. Lazio have lost three of their last five games.

Since August, Sarri’s team is averaging 0.81 goals conceded per game. However, in the previous eight rounds in Serie A, the Lazio defense let in 1.00 goals per game. Sarri’s attack also fell behind scoring 1.25 goals in the same period as opposed to the season’s 1.69 strikes per game.

Empoli

Empoli failed to record their first two wins in a row of the season as they returned from Udine with a 1-1 draw with Udinese on Wednesday. The Blues were leading by a goal for much of the game but had to settle for a point that raised their tally to 18 points in the 13th position.

Nevertheless, Empoli showed some improvement in the last eight rounds in terms of the outcome of their games. To illustrate, the Blues picked up 1.38 points per game in the previous eight rounds which is 22.1% higher than their season’s average of 1.13 points per game.

Lazio vs Empoli Prediction

Lazio need to bounce back quickly as they are slipping down the Serie A table after two losses. Playing in front of the Olimpico may help Sarri’s team to find their first win in three games. 

Safe Bet

Lazio are averaging 1.73 goals per game this season in Serie A and scored two or fewer goals in their last six league games. Empoli conceded two or fewer goals in their last four matches. With odds of 1.41 at 1XBet, we predict Lazio to score under 2.5 goals.

Highlighted Player

Ciro Immobile missed four games through injury but still, he is Lazio’s top scorer with six goals. The Italian international was also on target in the Europa league and assisted five times for his teammates to get on the scoresheet.
