Our Predictions
Bookmakers offer 3.25 for a draw, and recent head-to-head matches have seen balanced results – two wins apiece and one draw in the last five. Both teams average under one goal per game against each other and have mid-table motivation. With neither side showing dominant recent form and both teams likely focused on keeping points, a draw is a solid prediction backed by trends and odds.
Odds for both teams to score are 1.91, indicating bookmakers expect goals at both ends. Empoli’s pressing style and Monza’s counterattack strengths point to chances for both sides. With tactical changes likely and attacking talents like Gyasi and Dany Mota present, expect action from both teams.
The under 2.5 goals market offers odds of 1.65. This ties with the head-to-head history: their last matches have mostly been tight, low-scoring games, with less than one goal per side on average. Defensive strengths on both teams and mid-table caution support a low-scoring scenario.
