Empoli at Milan 2/22/19 - Serie A Picks & Predictions

Milan were really good against Atalanta in their last match and have been in quite solid form lately. They will now look to add to their tally when they will play host to Empoli on Friday for the Serie A. Empoli actually recorded a win in their previous match but have been in bad form overall.

Milan (11-4-9) were left chasing the score in their away match against Atalanta last week, but came back to score three goals and win by 3-1 on the road. That was their second win in a row, as they are also undefeated in their last six matches in all competitions (4-0-2). They are now sitting at the 4th spot of the Serie A with 42 points. They are just one point ahead of Roma and four points behind Inter Milan. Milan have been quite strong at home in the league (7-2-3), losing just one of their last eight in all competitions (5-1-2). Empoli (5-13-6) blasted Sassuolo in their last match, as they scored two first half goals to eventually win by 0-3. Even so, that was their first win after a tough, eight-match win-less streak in all competitions. Empoli are sitting at the 17th spot of the Serie A with 21 points, just three points ahead of the relegation zone. They have the worst away record in the Serie A (0-7-4). They have only kept a single clean sheet on the road and have conceded multiple goals on eight occasions so far.

Milan have a 5-3-1 record as hosts against Empoli in the past couple of decades but have won just once in the last four here (1-2-1). The hosts have the first word regarding the win here, but Empoli have scored consistently in this venue and could do so again.
