Empoli vs Salernitana Betting Tips

Empoli vs Salernitana Prediction 1: Empoli To Win

Based on recent form and the importance of the match, Empoli have a good chance of winning their upcoming match against Salernitana. With Cremonese and Sampdoria likely to be relegated, only one spot remains and both Empoli and Salernitana are in danger of being demoted to Serie B. However, Empoli come into the match with better form, having won one of their last two games.

Before their midweek game against Bologna, Empoli had only won one of their last 13 matches and had slipped down the Serie A table. Boss Paolo Zanetti will be keen to avoid a repeat of the weekend's disappointment against Sassuolo and end the season on a high note. With several other teams in the relegation battle, a win for Empoli would be crucial to their survival in Serie A.
