Bet on Empoli vs Torino

Empoli to Make it Six Points from Two Serie A Games?

Empoli survived relegation by the skin of their teeth last season, but the Blues are having a much better campaign this time around. The Tuscany team are tenth in Italy’s top table, taking 19 points from 15 games.

Roberto D’Aversa’s side recorded a stunning victory on the road last time out, thumping Verona 4-1. They beat Fiorentina in the Coppa Italia before that, winning 4-3 on penalties after a 2-2 tie.

Torino made a superb start but have gone off the boil in recent months. They head to Tuscany having picked up just one Serie A win in ten. However, they did leave Genoa with a point last weekend.

Empoli are in better form, and the home team will back themselves to get the job done in front of their own fans. Nevertheless, Friday’s affair at the Stadio Carlo Castellani could go either way.

Recent Empoli vs Torino Head-to-Head Meetings
