Padova vs Empoli Prediction and Betting Tips 12 April 2026

Padova and Empoli face off in what looks like a closely matched encounter, with both sides struggling for consistency. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 1-1 draw. The hosts are dealing with several absences, as Barreca, Bacci, and Silva are sidelined through injury, while midfielder Lorenzo Crisetig is suspended. Their recent form is poor, collecting just 0.80 points per game, and they have lost five of their last six matches. Offensively, Padova have struggled, averaging just 0.80 goals scored per game.

Empoli, meanwhile, also come into the clash low on confidence after a 1-0 defeat to Sampdoria. The Azzurri are
without forward Pietro Pellegri, but their attacking numbers remain stronger than Padova’s, averaging 1.50 goals per game. However, defensive issues are evident, conceding 1.70 per match and failing to keep a single clean sheet in their last 10 outings, with a very high 90% BTTS rate.

Given Empoli’s 90% BTTS rate and strong H2H trend, punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on Both Teams to Score, alongside Half-Time Draw, and Draw.

This Serie B match will be played on Sunday 12 April 2026 at 14:00.
