Carrarese v Empoli : Serie B match betting preview, prediction and odds

Fri 23rd Jan, 19:30 BST, Stadio dei Marmi, Carrara

Carrarese and Empoli meet at the Stadio dei Marmi on Friday evening, with both Antonio Calabro and Alessio Dionisi seeking a win in the Serie B. The predictions shown are based on complex statistical analysis of both teams, across seventeen of the biggest betting markets. Data shown and the odds are unique to each market, and head-to-head stats are included for all.

Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that it's unlikely that this match will serve up 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Carrarese and Empoli haven't typically served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in Serie B individually or when going head-to-head. So, without a strong favourite win or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.22.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Carrarese are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 45% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.30.
