Empoli F.C. vs S.S. Lazio Prediction 3 June 2023

The strong middle-tier side Empoli and the future Champions League participant Lazio will meet each other in the thirty-eighth round of Serie A.

Empoli spent the end of the league season at a high level - they beat Bologna 3:1, Salernitana 2:1 and Juventus 4:1, and also had a 1:1 draw with Sampdoria and 1:1 with Verona. The current fourteenth place with 43 points and a goal difference of 37:47 fully satisfies the ambitions of the Azzurri, who have already retained their residence in the elite.

At the same time, Lazio took down Sassuolo (2:0), Udinese (1:0) and Cremonese (3:2), tied the duel with Lecce 2:2 and turned out to be weaker than Milan - 0:2. In total for the campaign, the Eagles have earned 71 points on a 58:30 goal stat, placing them in second place with a significant improvement over the previous year.

In recent weeks, Empoli have turned their home stadium into a real fortress, from which it is difficult to take away even a draw. We do not think that Lazio will be able to break this trend, given their not the highest level of motivation after completing goals.
