In the match that kicks off the 16th round of Serie A, in a league table that is extremely tight in all its positions, Empoli will face Torino on Friday in what the betting sites predict will be an extremely close duel with slight favouritism for the home team.
The truth is that Empoli has had a sweet December, eliminating Fiorentina on penalties in the Italian Cup and later beating Zannetti's Verona 1-4 in Serie A with a spectacular performance by the young Italian striker Sebastiano Esposito who scored the first two goals for his team with 3 minutes of difference between them.
Meanwhile, Torino is in urgent need of a win because after an excellent start in Serie A in August and September everything went downhill for them from there. Empoli itself eliminated them earlier in the Italian Cup and from then on they played 10 games, winning only 1 in Serie A. The last of them was a boring 0-0 draw against Genoa. With a better squad, they probably couldn't beat Empoli twice in 2024. In the Coppa Italia, Empoli's last win over Torino had high odds of +520, which ended with Haas' goal in the 90th minute for the visitors.
