Fiorentina vs Empoli prediction and betting tips on April 27, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 34th round of the Italian Serie A, on April 27, 2025, Fiorentina will face Empoli. This is the kind of opponent they must beat, especially at home, if they want to stay within the European competition zone.
Our Prediction for the Fiorentina vs Empoli Match
The clubs had a fairly predictable previous season. The Florence side, in fact, almost exactly repeated their 2022/2023 performance: losing in the Conference League final and finishing eighth in Serie A. Their guests managed to survive yet another season in Italy's top flight despite unremarkable results: 36 points and seventeenth place.
In the summer, Palladino replaced Vincenzo Italiano at Artemio Franchi. Even with Raffaele, they reached the semifinals of the now-familiar Conference League. There is still a risk of not improving their domestic performance. But there have been attempts to step up; for example, they beat Cagliari 2-1 last round. D'Aversa took Empoli to the cup semifinals, even eliminating Fiorentina and then Juventus along the way. However, they immediately lost the home leg 0-3. In the return leg in Bologna, they lost again but scored a consolation goal through Kovalenko. In the previous round, against another outsider, Venezia, there was no winner – the match ended in a fighting 2-2 draw. This result works in favor of their relegation rivals.
Kean and his partners score over 1.5 goals per Serie A round. Having De Gea in goal allows them to keep average goals conceded to 1.0. The outsiders, however, have an obvious pattern: conceding twice as many as they score – 0.79/1.58.
