Avellino are having a rough stretch and come into this one out of form, with a couple of heavy defeats and a goalless draw in their recent matches. Empoli, on the other hand, have been in much better shape, winning several of their recent games and only losing once, so they look the stronger team right now.

When these two met recently, one game was tight and low-scoring while the other had several goals in it, so it's a bit mixed on how open it might be. Based on their recent results, Empoli look the more likely side to come out on top, though Avellino being at home keeps things from feeling completely one-sided.

On balance, expect Empoli to be the better team and likely win this match.
