Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

All things considered, our prediction for Sunday's match is over 2.5 goals, meaning that we expect Inter and Empoli to score 3 goals or more combined during the regulation 90 minutes. 2 goals or fewer would mean a losing bet but, with statistics below suggesting both teams have goals in them, we think it could well be a winner.

Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.0 is decent for Inter Milan in their clash with Empoli, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 73 consecutive Serie A games.

Inter Milan's defensive record is to be admired, Simone Inzaghi's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive Serie A outings. An average PG rating of 1.1 for Empoli makes sense in this context.
