LiontipsEmpoli vs Fiorentina. Prediction and Betting Tips for Serie A (August 21, 2022).
Command Analysis
Empoli had a poor performance in Serie A last year. The team conceded a total of 70 goals and almost got relegated. The team started the new football year with two defeats. First, they lost to SPAL (1:2 ET) in the first round of Coppa Italia, and then suffered a narrow defeat to Spezia (0:1) in the first Serie A game. Today the team will be without Tonelli and Ebuehi.
Fiorentina finished in 7th place in the 2021-2022 Serie A, which allowed them to join the European club competition.
