Lazio - Empoli betting tips and odds

We don’t expect Lazio to have any issues beating Empoli. The hosts are largely favoured by all the top bookmakers online and 1.57 might actually be a good-value bet to consider. The visitors are not to be underestimated but on this particular instance the home side are seen as clear winners.

Considering what they’re up against, Empoli can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 6.50 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

The hosts’ most recent Serie A performance was filled with highs and lows, but they eventually narrowly lost that game despite being in the lead at halftime. It’s definitely not good news for them, but it’s worth keeping in mind that they were playing away, and the betting odds only gave them a very slight edge over their opponents.

Empoli tied with Udinese in their previous away game. They were considered far weaker than their opponents going in, however, to a point where even the 1:1 draw is very surprising.

The hosts are just 3 points behind the best-placed teams in the league, so they’ll be going into this match highly motivated to secure a win. We’re getting into the second half of the season now, so not even favourable matchups such as this one can’t be taken lightly.

As far as any head-to-head stats are concerned, examples of recent clashes include a decisive victory The Biancocelesti secured last season. They walked away with a considerable goal advantage, which is in line with their current position as favourites.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

A confirmed Under 2.5 Goals market seems like a foregone conclusion for this particular match. The only thing to do now is to decide whether the relatively short 2.15 odds are worth your time. We would say they are because this bet manages to have real betting value as well.
