Prediction: 1-1
Empoli
Torino will be aiming to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Roma when they host Empoli to their Stadio Olimpico di Torino on Matchday 15. The 2021/2022 Serie A season has been a mixed bag for Il Toro, and, as a result, they sit in the middle of the table ahead of Thursday’s clash. Andrea Belotti should continue to lead the line for the hosts, while all Verdi, Ansaldi, Rodriguez, and Mandragora are out with injuries.
The Azzurri, on the other hand, did well to beat Fiorentina in the Tuscan derby at the weekend. Empoli aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, but beating Torino on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. There are no absentees in the away team ahead of the trip to Turin.
Highlighted Player (Andrea Belotti):
Andrea Belotti began his youth career at Grumellese at the age of 10 and after spending three years at the club, he joined Albinolefe in 2006.
