Inter vs. Empoli 5/6/22 Serie A Soccer Pick, Predictions, and Odds

Inter is welcoming Empoli to Giuseppe Meazza in round 36 of the Italian Serie A. Inter is still in the title race, and they would have been at the top if they haven’t dropped points a couple of weeks ago. Empoli is out of the relegation zone, they have been scoring a lot of goals, but they have also been conceding a lot of goals.

As I’ve mentioned, Inter dropped points a couple of weeks ago against Bologna, and that might cost them the title in Serie A this season. in their last game against Udinese, Inter has won that game 1-2 on the road. With 75 points, Inter is now in 2^nd place, which is 2 points less than Milan has at the top. Inter is scoring a lot of goals this season, the most in Serie A, 74 goals so far, while their defense is also the best in the league with 29 conceded goals. Martinez has been in outstanding form with 17 scored goals, while Dzeko has added 13 goals. Calhanoglu and Barella have added 10 assists each. Inter could still win the title in Serie A, they have a lot easier schedule than Milan, but they are also playing in the Coppa Italia finals against Juventus, and they will surely want to win it.

Empoli has won only 1 game since mid-December, but thanks to a solid first half of the season, Empoli will be staying in Serie A, which was what they wanted all along. The only game Napoli has won lately was against Napoli, and that was their best game of the season and the biggest turnover of the season. Empoli was losing 0-2, but with 3 goals in the last 20 minutes of the game, Empoli has won this match 3-2. Pinamonti is the leading goalscorer for Empoli with 12 goals, while Bajrami has added 6 goals and 4 assists. There are a few injuries in Empoli, but that doesn’t matter anyway since there is no pressure on Empoli. Defensively, Empoli has been terrible this season, but their offense has somewhat picked up the slack, and that saved Empoli from the relegation.

The trends are heavily on Inter’s side in this matchup, and I think Inter will get the win here. With the title still within the reach, Inter has to push forward, and I think they will. I’m taking Inter in this one.
