Empoli

The team looked good at the beginning of the season, but as the season progressed they started to experience difficulties. Now Empoli are almost in the relegation zone, which before the start of matchday 24 is only one point ahead. It should be noted that, in general, the Blues have lost 10 of the 23 matches of the championship, and won only four, and scored only 22 goals in this stretch.

Empoli played their previous match away against Juventus last weekend and took a long lead from the 4th minute, when Mattia De Sciglio scored. However, starting from the 61st minute, Turin seemed to wake up and sent four unanswered goals into the opponent's goal. 1:4 - Empoli have not won for eight consecutive matches, of which they have lost six.

Milan

Rossoneri played a derby with Inter in the last round of the championship. Milan won the first two meetings with the Nerazzurri this season, having been stronger in the first round of Serie A and in the final of the Italian Super Cup, and were close to beating the principal rival this time. Yes, Inter did not realize a huge number of chances, but Milan led 90+3 after Christian Pulisic's goal in the 45th minute. Only in the compensated time of the second half Inter equalized the score - 1:1.

Further in the week Sergio Conceição's team met Roma in the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup and secured a ticket to the semifinals. By the 45th minute, thanks to Tammy Abraham's double, AC Milan led by two goals, and in the second half Artem Dovbik's goal was answered by new recruit Joao Felix - 3:1.

It should also be reminded that next week Milan will face the first of the Champions League round of 32 - away against Feyenoord.

H2H Meetings

In the first round of this Italian championship Milan on their field confidently coped with Empoli - 3:0.

Expert Betting Tips

Milan, in general, looks good under Sergiu Conceição and managed not to lose twice to Inter, win the Italian Super Cup and reach the semifinals of the national Cup. In the championship, the Rossoneri are still behind even the sixth place in the European Cup zone, so it's time to make up for lost time in Serie A. Empoli lately has completely given up, lost six of the previous eight matches and can hardly be considered a truly dangerous opponent for ‘Milan’ at the moment. We bet here on a win for the Red-Blacks, but at the same time we don't expect a lot of goals. Empoli, remember, have one of the worst offenses this season.
