Torino vs Empoli Prediction 16.12.2023

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 16.12.2023
• Kickoff: 19:45 UTC / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Stadio Olimpico di Torino (Turin)

When the terms football and Torino are linked together, any sports fans always clearly thinks of Juventus first, one of the biggest Italian clubs ever, but FC Torino is a club that has a lot of supporters in this city and has become a stable member of the elite for the last decade. This season they also managed to maintain that status with a solid 20 points in 15 matches played. Torino is in 11th place and in the last month they have had some very good results such as a 3-0 home win against Atalanta

Empoli is one of the clubs that has a hard time reaching the middle and upper half of the table, so this season they are also gravitating towards the dangerous zone. Two draws against Lecce and Genoa in the last two weekends failed to get them out of that uncomfortable position, so Empoli is on the brink with 12 points taken so far. This team played even better in away games during this season than in matches at home and in total they took 2 more points in matches outside their stadium.

Torino vs Empoli pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

Torino's defense capitulated only 5 times in 7 matches played at home. It is also the trademark of this team. The attack is not so deadly and because of that this is a team that plays quite balanced. When it comes to Empoli, until a few rounds ago they were the most ineffective team in the league with only a couple of goals, they still are, but now with 10 goals. The average number of goals in their matches is around 2.5 goals, while Torino's goal is less than 2. We do not expect a very effective duel and under 2.5 goals is an excellent offer.
