Torino - Empoli predictions

Torino’s previous outing saw them take home a single point in a 2:2 draw at $TEAM_ NAME. They managed to grab an early lead and maintain It in the first half, but the advantage was fumbled before the final whistle.

Empoli are coming off from a narrow home loss in their previous match against Roma. The away team secured an early lead and carried it into a 0:1 triumph. Considering the 4.31 on Empoli winning, though, it’s hard to be surprised.
