Empoli Betting News
Empoli fulfilled their primary goal this season, they have stayed in the league. They achieved that by drawing 17 times out of 36 matches and throughout the season they stayed above the relegation mark. They lost their two last matches and it seems they are already thinking about the next season. However, four weeks ago they defeated Napoli by 4:2 and overall they were in a pretty good form in last month.
Tiberio Guarente and Simone Verdi are injured for the forthcoming match.
Sampdoria Betting News
For the most of the season, Sampdoria was the biggest pleasant surprise. They were even in top five teams for several months, but near the end of the season their form started to fade. They have only one victory in their last five matches and they failed to stay on one of the top five positions on the table that would lead them to Europa League. They still have some chances to qualify, but Fiorentina have four points advantage which means they need only three more points to secure the fifth place and play in Europa League next season.
Only Eder and Djamel Mesbah are injured for this match.
Empoli vs Sampdoria Match Prediction
The most likely outcome of this match is, of course, a draw. Both teams were drawing many times this season and if that is be the case here, we won’t be surprised. However, Sampdoria won six out of seven last matches against Empoli in all competitions and they need one more victory, to continue their pursuit for the place in Europa League. However, their decline in form leaves us with the choice to tip on draw here.
