Como - Empoli predictions

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

If betting odds are anything to go on – and they are - Empoli will likely get overrun by their opponents with little hope of winning. Considering how one-sided this matchup is, they may want to cut their losses and focus their energy elsewhere.

No one expected Como to win the previous round at Milan – they were the visiting team in a highly disfavourable matchup. Even though they somehow managed to end the first half with a lead, their opponents went home with 3 points after a narrow 2:1 win.

Empoli were facing a very tough matchup in their previous away game, so it’s no surprise that they lost. That said, they ended with only 1 goal down and managed to hold on to a tie score for more than half the game. In short, their form may be stronger than recent results are implying.

Looking over their most recent appearances, Empoli have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net. The past 3 home games saw them concede over 5 times.

The visitors are well on their way towards relegation unless they can close the 0 -point difference before it’s too late. We’re already at round 30, though, and they’re heading into a very unfavourable matchup.

Earlier in the season, Como lost an away game against Empoli, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 1.77 odds for a home win in mind.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
