Empoli vs Avellino Prediction and Betting Tips 1 May 2026

Empoli welcome Avellino in a high-stakes clash with both sides chasing very different goals. As both teams are capable of finding the net, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Azzurri are desperate to escape the relegation zone after taking just 0.70 points per game from their last 10 matches. However, their home form offers encouragement, averaging 2.00 goals scored and a strong 2.20 xG, with all four recent home matches seeing both teams score. The absence of Pietro Pellegri is a blow, but their attacking numbers suggest they can still create chances.

Avellino, meanwhile, are in better shape, collecting 1.70 points per game and firmly in the playoff race. I Lupi are solid defensively with 40% clean sheets, but their away form is mixed, conceding 1.80 goals per match. The visitors will be without Filippo Reale, though his absence is unlikely to drastically impact their setup. There are no other fresh selection worries for the visiting team.

Empoli saw BTTS in 100% of recent home games and given Avellino signs of improvement up front, we predict Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Over 3.5 goals (Empoli home matches average 3.50 goals).

This Serie B match will be played on Friday 1 May 2026 at 14:00.
