Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Football game between AS Roma and Empoli will bring down the curtain on Sunday’s program in the Serie A round 4. The Giallorossi are desperate to record their first win of the season and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Azzurri. New recruit Romelu Lukaku is pushing for a start, while all Tammy Abraham, Marash Kumbulla, Renato Sanches, Lorenzo Pellegrini, and Nicola Zalewski remain in the recovery room. The good news for the hosts is that influential attacker Paulo Dybala has overcome his injury.
Empoli, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season, with the team losing each of their first three league fixtures. Given their difficulties in front of goal, we predict that the Romans are going to pick up all three points from the match. Both Elia Caprile and Daniel Maldini are out of contention through injuries, speaking of the visiting team.
