Empoli vs AC Milan Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Azzurri Empolesi set to host AC Milan next

Empoli are all set to clash against AC Milan in Matchday 24 of the Serie A 2024-25 season at home. The hosts are close to the relegation zone and might end up there if they do not make a comeback now. AC Milan are in the eighth place with nine wins in 22 league games so far. They have so far come up with some average performances this season.

The hosts Empoli will be low on confidence even at their home because they were dominated by Juventus in their last league game. Empoli were only able to score a single goal but conceded four. Their upcoming league game against Milan is not going to be an easy one as the visitors have added some new players to their squad and have started looking strong.

AC Milan are coming in after a win in their previous game. It was a Coppa Italia game against AS Roma. Although they were held to a draw in their last Serie A game, Milan will not be an easy team to take a fight to. They have added players like Joao Felix and Kyle Walker on loan in their squad. These star players are surely going to make an impact.
