Empoli Ascoli betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 7^th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 6 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Cosenza, by (3‑2). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Salernitana, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 5 points in away matches and 16 at their stadium, with 14 goals scored and 7 conceded at home, against 9 goals scored and 11 conceded in away matches. In their last match, for the Coppa Italia, they got an away loss against Genoa by (3‑2). In the last 7 away league matches Ascoli has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 21 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 5 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 14 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

The team had a median campaign last season, finishing the year only in 12th place with 43 points from 36 matches played. It is a team that has won series b twice and also once as the runner-up. In this way the fans hope that this year things will be a little better for the home team, which in a way has been happening, since the squad occupies the 7th position, momentarily conquering one of the places for the final games that allow access to the Italian elite.
