Prediction

  • Empoli pulled a shock comeback in Rome last week as they forced the hosts to a 2-2 draw thanks to a late attacking spell after hardly creating chances throughout the game.
  • On the other hand, despite a positive start, 10-man Sampdoria suffered defeat eventually succumbed against Napoli and now find themselves level on points with Verona.
  • A win for Empoli, who are unbeaten in their last three matches, could mean going 13 points clear of the bottom three, which would be a massive achievement as they approach the end of the first half of the season.
