Following two consecutive losses in the previous Serie A rounds, where they failed to score, Empoli is dangerously close to the relegation zone, maintaining a slim lead of just one point over Frosinona. Numerous teams are apprehensive about falling into the bottom three spots, and Empoli is no exception. With only ten rounds remaining this season, winning home matches has become a necessity for them. Empoli’s offense is currently the weakest in the league, a trend that has persisted for most of the season.
In a surprising turn of events, Bologna has been given the chance to vie for a place in the Champions League, a first for the team in the history of the new competition format. Currently, they’re ahead of the pack with a 3-point lead over Roma and a 4-point lead over Atalanta. What’s even better is that their fate is in their hands, hinging on their performance in the upcoming period. With the second-best home team record in the league, they’ve only suffered 3 losses and achieved 3 wins in away games thus far.
Empoli vs Bologna pick: BOLOGNA TO WIN AND COVER AH 0
One of the major reasons Empoli is in their current position is due to their sole victory in their last 10 home matches. Their extreme inefficiency is another contributing factor.
Empoli can only rely on their favorable tradition in matches against Bologna, but this season, Bologna is a completely transformed team with a clear vision, outstanding team chemistry, and quality.
In the last two away games in Serie A, Bologna significantly outperformed stronger teams, Lazio and Atalanta.
The guests are likely to win this match, but it’s safer to hedge with an Asian Handicap of 0.
