Value football betting tips and predictions for the weekend
Empoli hosts Parma at the Stadio Carlo Castellani in a fixture from the 36th round of the Serie A. Keep up with us and these Value football betting tips and predictions for the weekend.
Empoli’s time is running out. The Azzurri Empolesi are in the relegation zone of the Serie A as they are 19th with 25 points won. This puts them two points behind the 17th Lecce and the safe zone. Clearly Empoli still have chances to survive, but it all depends on what they will do in the remaining three matches.
And the team’s current form is not good – two draws and three losses in the last five matches. Last weekend Empoli faced Lazio at home, but conceded a 0-1 defeat. They even finished the game with 10 men on the pitch as Lorenzo Colombo was sent off after just 38 minutes of playing. This red card decided everything in Lazio’s favour.
Parma are also not officially safe from relegation. The Crociati are 16th in the standings, but just 6 points ahead of the 18th Venezia. It could be enough to survive, but it’d be better if they don’t take any risks.
Parma won just one of their last five games in the league – against Juventus. Last weekend they hosted Como, but suffered a 0-1 defeat.
Now what could the manager Christian Chivu change against Empoli? He will stick to his 3-5-2 formation, but some of the players could be replaced. Players like Camara, Duric and Benedyczak could start the game. They were all on the bench against Como.
The young French striker Ange-Yoan Bonny remains Parma’s top scorer this season although he has just 6 league goals.
That’s the Value football betting tips and predictions for the weekend for the Serie A clash between Empoli and Parma. The hosts are desperate for a win here, but it won’t be easy for them.
