AC Milan vs Empoli Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
Empoli manager Roberto DāAversa returns to face off against his youth club.
AC Milan will lock horns with Empoli in their upcoming match in the Serie A. The match is scheduled for the last day of November (30th) and will see seventh-position Milan take on tenth-placed Empoli. Both Milan and Empoli will be looking forward to getting back to their winning ways as they have both drawn their last two games in the premiere Italian league.
Surprisingly there has been a remarkable twist of events in the Serie A. Napoli are sitting at the top with 29 points. However just below Napoli are four teams who are sitting with the exact same number of points: Atalanta, Inter, Fiorentina and Lazio. All four of these teams have 28 points in their tally and the only thing that separates them are their goal differences.
So, it goes without saying things are definitely heating up in the top half. Milan and Empoli are not quite there yet but if they hope to do so they will surely have to add a few more wins to their names. Empoli head coach Roberto DāAversa will also be aware of that and will look to direct his team accordingly in enemy territory.
Kick-Off:
Saturday, 30th November, 10:30 pm
Location: San Siro, Milan, Italy
Form:
AC Milan ā W-W-D-D-W
Empoli- D-L-W-D-D
Players to Watch:
Christian Pulisic (AC Milan)
Christian Pulisic is a man in good form at the moment. The United States captain is among goals and looks dangerous with the ball at his feet. He is currently the leading goal scorer of AC Milan with five goals.
The 26-year-oldās confident playing style and ability to not succumb under pressure make him a standout player. When he is not scoring goals he also makes crucial assists.
Pietro Pellegri (Empoli)
He is one of the youngest players to have played in the Serie A, a record he shares with former Italian legend Amedeo Amadei. At just 15 years and 280 days of age, Pietro Pellegri made his debut for Genoa. The young starlet is now slowly showing his class in the Empoli ranks.
Pellegri has so far amassed three goals out of his nine appearances for the Tuscany-based club. At this rate, his stock price is only going to increase and his parent club Torino might stop loaning him out anymore.
