Tip and bets

1.95both teams to score

Empoli is in excellent form and remains unbeaten so far. The Azzurri play with confidence and will likely be aggressive in attack today. Fiorentina, on the other hand, has defensive vulnerabilities, having kept a clean sheet in only one of their seven games this season. It's unlikely the visitors will leave without conceding a goal. However, the Viola have their strengths in attack and regularly find the back of the net, making a goal exchange probable.

We anticipate that goals will be scored in this match. Our prediction is both teams to score. This bet is offered at odds of 1.95
