Empoli vs Torino prediction and betting tips on April 6, 2024
In the 31st round of the Italian Serie A, Empoli will face Torino at the Stadio Carlo Castellani on Saturday, April 6th. The game is scheduled to kick off at 20:45 Central European Time.
Empoli
After a disastrous start, Davide Nicola managed to lift the team out of a deep slump, but Empoli still finds themselves in a dangerous position. In recent matches, the club has struggled to secure points, but this can be attributed to the quality of their opponents. Following their defeat against Cagliari, Empoli faced Milan, Bologna, and Inter. With eight rounds remaining in the championship, the team sits in the relegation zone in 18th place, but the gap to 13th place is only four points. This indicates that the battle is far from over.
Torino
Torino has solidified their position in the middle of the league table and still harbors hopes of qualifying for European competitions. The team scores relatively few goals, but conceding 26 goals is the fourth-lowest among all Serie A teams. The fixture list is not favorable to Ivan Juric's side, so it's likely that the Bulls will have to settle for a position around tenth place at the end of the season.
Interesting Facts and Head-to-Head History
- Empoli has lost their previous four matches without scoring a single goal.
- Torino has scored in their last five away matches.
- The teams often play draws against each other, with only one instance of the "both teams to score" bet not coming through in their last six meetings.
Empoli vs Torino Prediction
Torino hasn't lost to Empoli since 2019. I don't think the hosts will manage to win this time either. I'm betting that the Bulls won't lose and that the total goals will be under 3.5.
