Fiorentina vs Empoli Predictions
- Empoli have conceded 12 goals in three Serie A away games this season.
- Fiorentina have scored exactly three goals in three of their last five league assignments.
- Nicolas Gonzalez has scored in each of his last three Serie A appearances.
La Viola flying high
Fiorentina’s 3-1 win over Napoli before the international break left them just four points shy of the top of Serie A and they should have enough for another comfortable win on Monday.
La Viola are the fourth-highest scorers in the Italian top flight and have averaged 2.67 goals-per-game at the Stadio Artemio Franchi this season, so they could put an Empoli side that have proven fragile at the back to the sword on Monday.
Gli Azzurri struggle on the road
The visitors find themselves in the bottom three heading into gameweek nine, with six defeats in eight games and harbouring one of the worst defensive records in the league.
Things get even worse away from home, where they have lost all three games and are yet to score a single goal, conceding a massive 12 at the other end.
Gonzalez to strike again in Florence
All things considered, backing Fiorentina to score three or more appeals and, given Empoli’s misfiring attack on the road and the fact the hosts have scored exactly three goals in three of their last five league games, a 3-0 correct score prediction looks a good choice.
Anytime goalscorer punters should consider Nicolas Gonzalez, who has scored five and assisted another in seven Serie A outings this season. He scored off the bench against Napoli to make it a goal in each of his last three Serie A appearances, so he can punish this leaky Empoli back line.
