Empoli - Udinese betting tips and odds

The visitors understand the difficulty of the task at hand. To beat Empoli on their own turf would be a major feat, and it is always a tough challenge.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.55.

Empoli are coming off from a narrow 2:1 away defeat in the previous round. The home-field disadvantage and a very difficult match-up against Monza ensured that they spent most of the game trailing behind.

The away team went into their previous Serie A away match with barely any hope of avoiding defeat. However, despite the heavily unfavourable odds and home-field disadvantage, they managed to hold their ground against Atalanta and record a surprise draw.

The hosts have a dubious performance record at home. The previous 3 times they played at home were marked with over 5 goals conceded. That’s bad news considering playing at home is usually seen as an advantage.

Udinese have been performing rather indifferently at Stadio Carlo Castellani lately with a string of 3 stalemates on home turf.

These two teams met earlier this season and the final result was a draw. Udinese are playing as the away team this time, which puts some doubt as to whether they’ll be able to pull ahead this time. According to the betting odds, though, they’re still the favourites.

Due to the absence of injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their complete lineups available for an exciting match.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.91.
