2.89Tip and bets
"Napoli" has gained excellent form and is absolutely rightfully leading the table - in terms of football quality, the Neapolitans are undoubtedly the best in the championship today. The Neapolitans do not have a serious gap from their competitors and today no other result than a victory will satisfy them. "Empoli" is not an easy opponent and will try to put up a fight, but the difference in class is too great and it makes sense to give preference to the favorite in such a match.
We think that the hosts have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1) on Napoli . This bet is offered with odds of 2.15
Bet on total
Napoli play open attacking football, regularly and score a lot, and will probably play as aggressively as possible up front today in an attempt to win. It is unlikely that Empoli have a chance in this situation to play reliably in defense and contain such an attacking force, but at the same time the Azzurri are also in good shape and are distinguished by ideal implementation, an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 2.05
Bet on corners
Napoli are the favourites and will probably spend most of the match attacking - the visitors should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners for Napoli. This bet is offered for 1.89
