Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It may be an over exaggeration to say that we expect Roberto D'Aversa and Eusebio Di Francesco to park the bus here, but we do not expect a deluge of goals as Empoli and Venezia go head-to-head. The statistics belowimply under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we're saying that looks like a strong prediction. With best odds of 1.67 available on under 2.5 goals and nothing too eyecatching in the full time result market, that's the bet we'd advise you go for.
