Empoli take on the visitors Juventus in the round 36 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, May 22nd at Stadio Carlo Castellani (Empoli).
Currently, Empoli have had a very productive stretch, earning 7 points in the last three matches and distancing themselves from the relegation zone by 9 points. Their recent matches have been against teams near the bottom of the league table, and Empoli managed to handle their direct competitors in the survival battle. As for the upcoming match, there isn't much confidence in the home team, as they have struggled against top-level teams, including a 0-4 loss to Juventus in the first half of the season. Now, with Juventus motivated to secure a top-three finish and Empoli finding it difficult to expect any points from this encounter. The main priority for the team is that they performed well against their direct survival rivals and secured their place in the division.

Juventus currently sit in second position, but the battle for the medals and a Champions League spot continues. Inter is on a winning streak and shows no signs of stopping, while Lazio is also not far behind. Therefore, it is too early for the Turin team to relax. Juventus lost their final ticket to the European tournament to Sevilla last week, but it's not particularly surprising since Sevilla is known for their mastery in European competitions, and stopping them is a difficult task. Thus, this setback can be overlooked. As for the upcoming match, Juventus is clearly the favorite, as they cannot afford to falter in such encounters and consistently earn points against lower-ranked teams. Therefore, it would be reasonable to bet in favor of the favorite.
The odds for Juventus are quite acceptable, and there's no need to overthink the bet for this match. Empoli has already achieved their goal, and relegation is no longer a threat to them. However, Juventus still needs points as they could lose the silver medal position. Therefore, I would suggest betting on a Juventus victory. Based on their class, the away team should win by 1-2 goals.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with -1.0 handicap.
