Empoli vs Inter Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 23rd April 2023

Bookmakers favour Inter to be victorious against Empoli in their upcoming Serie A encounter. Despite their recent unconvincing form, a win for the former seems likely this coming Sunday. They should not underestimate Empoli, though.

With four defeats in the last six games across all tournaments, the situation at Empoli could probably be a lot better. They need to improve their game or prepare for more disappointment as they face Inter at home.

Empoli scored six times in the last ten outings for an average of 0.6 goals a game. They conceded 13 and managed two clean sheets.

Inter scored eight goals, conceded eight and kept their opponents from scoring three times in ten matches.

Inter were knocked out cold when Empoli took a 1-0 win in their latest encounter. It served as pay back for the 4-2 defeat, Inter handed out in the game before.

Empoli vs Inter Prediction

Empoli Form

Empoli have been inconsistent in their last three matches, which added four points to their tally. They claimed a 1-0 win against Lecce, before drawing 0-0 with AC Milan. This little streak came to an end, when Cremonese proved too strong in a 1-0 defeat for Empoli. Empoli only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Serie A matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew two and lost two, as they scored six and conceded seven goals.

Inter Form

In has been a bit of everything for Inter in their previous three matches, as they first beat Benfica by 0-2. This was followed by a disappointing 0-1 defeat against Monza, before an encounter with Benfica produced a 3-3 draw. Inter managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Serie A. On top of winning once they also drew three as well as losing two, while scoring seven time and letting in six.

Inter are expected to win on Sunday, and we can't argue with that, but at the same time don't believe in a high-scoring win against Empoli.

Empoli have a record of seven wins, 11 draws and 12 defeats in the Serie A this season. Inter show off 16 wins, three draws and 11 defeats in the Serie A.
