Empoli vs Torino Predictions

• Empoli are unbeaten in two Serie A matches
• Torino have won just one of their last 11 in all competitions
• The hosts edged to a 3-2 victory in this fixture last season

Low-scoring encounter expected in Tuscany

Both Empoli and Torino could find themselves dragged into relegation trouble should performances not improve and a tight, low-scoring affair could well be on the cards on Friday night.

Roberto D’Aversa’s men may have lost just one of their last six in all competitions but their record in front of their own fans hardly makes for exciting reading, with the Empoli Blues winning just one of their seven matches at the Stadio Carlo Castellani – scoring just twice.

Torino meanwhile have won just one of their last 11 matches across league and cup obligations, losing eight, as well as tasting defeat in four of their last five fixtures away from the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.

The visitors have also failed to score in any of their last three on the road and their scoreless run could well continue on Friday. Empoli may be struggling for goals at home but they have netted six across their last two in all competitions and should be able to edge to a crucial victory, with our prediction being a 1-0 home victory.
