2.59Tip and bets
Fiorentina looks very solid at home this season, and in general is in great shape and is not without reason the favorite. Rotation will take place today, but the "violets" have a high-quality and wide reserve, it will be almost impossible to play reliably against Empoli. At the same time, the "azzurri" know how to play second fiddle and recently in the derby they regularly give battle to Fiorentina - the guests are quite capable of responding with one goal.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Prediction - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.99
Bet on the outcome
Fiorentina suffered a serious emotional shock a few days ago, but the situation with Bove ended well and today the Violets will probably be maximally motivated and charged for success. The hosts' coach will definitely use rotation, but even in this situation Empoli hardly have a chance, the Azzurri have a very important match against Verona ahead and the rotation will also obviously be large-scale.
Bet - Asian handicap (-1) on Fiorentina. This bet is offered for 1.75
Bet on corners
Fiorentina are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Fiorentina. This bet is offered for 1.85
