Verona are in real trouble right now. They have lost four of their last five games and look badly out of form, while their one draw in that stretch was a wild, high-scoring affair. Empoli are the opposite — they are unbeaten in their last two and have won three of their last five, so they come into this match in much better shape.

When these two teams meet, the games have often been tight but they usually produce goals, and Verona have actually won most of the recent meetings. Still, given how poor Verona's current run is, this looks like a close game that Empoli should edge. Expect a fairly open match with goals, and Empoli to come away with the win.
