1.35Tip and bets
"Empoli" looked very solid in the Cup against "Catanzaro" - won 4:1, could have scored more. Today "azzurri" will probably also be maximally aggressive and charged for victory, "Monza" is far from being in the best form and has a number of personnel losses. In the last two home matches "Empoli" beat "Monza", the series will probably continue.

Bet on total
Empoli are traditionally strong at home and will probably play openly, only to win. It is unlikely that Monza has a chance to stay clean today, but at the same time the Biancorossi are unlikely to only defend, and the visitors know how to play on the counterattack - they are quite capable of finding their moment and realizing it.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.85
Bet on corners
Empoli are the favourites and will certainly play first – the hosts should win confidently on corners.
The bet is Empoli to win on corners. This bet is offered at 1.95
