The hosts of the match gained seven point in three games after beating Palermo and Udinese, both 1-0, and drawing 0-0 with Sampdoria. Three clean sheets in a row was already big success for Empoli.

Torino can’t be happy with results they show this winter. The Bulls played nine matches since the beginning of December and managed to win only one match, drew three and recorded five defeats. As the results, the team moved down to the middle in the standings of Serie A. The team have 31 points after 21 matches played and occupy 9th position with 39-32 goal difference. The Bulls played 11 matches on the road and gained only nine points, failing to win on the road since the middle of November.
Empoli are undefeated in their recent six head-to-heads with Torino, taking four wins and two draws. We can expect the match to be quite fascinating with numerous chances on both sides. It’s hard to pick a favorite but we should see at least couple of goals combines by the teams.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals.
