Empoli - Verona: betting tip for the Italian Championship match

Current form

Empoli was initially considered one of the contenders for relegation from Serie A and could not question this status. By the final round, the Toscans are in 18th place in the red zone, in terms of additional indicators they are inferior to the saving 17th place of Lecce, and Parma is ahead by a margin of two points. The chances of salvation are decent, because Lecce will play away from Lazio in the last round. Roberto D'Aversa's men are having a strong end to the season, having defeated Parma on home turf (2:1) and Monza on the road with a score of 3:1 in the previous two rounds.

Disqualifications and injuries

Haas, Sazonov, Pellegrini, Malech, Jurkowski and Kouame will not play today due to injuries.

Interesting betting trends
