Empoli Sassuolo betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a match between two teams that haven’t been doing good campaigns so far in the Italian League, as they are at the bottom of the league table. However, Sassuolo's situation is a bit more comfortable, as they have seven points of advantage to their opponent of that round, who is the first team above the relegation zone. The home team has the worst attack of the championship, and also presents some defensive problems, especially in the coverage of the sides. Sassuolo has more fragility in the defense, with problems to neutralize balls in depth, having yielded the turn several times throughout the competition. However, despite having an ineffective attack, Empoli comes motivated and plays against a not very consistent defense. Thus, it’s expectable a balanced match, with the draw as a good betting option, but with favoritism for the home team.
