Atalanta vs Empoli Betting Tips: Atalanta and Over 2.5
La Dea secured their place in the final of the Coppa Italia with a thrilling 4:1 second leg victory against Fiorentina earlier this week. Two goals in stoppage time secured a 4:2 aggregate victory for Atalanta, who will now face Juventus in the final of Italy's premier cup competition.
At the Gewiss, Gianpiero Gasperini´s side have been in excellent form this year with victories recorded in ten of their last 13 matches on home soil. Ten of those games saw at least three goals scored.
Placed sixth in Serie A, La Dea will be keen to pick up another win this weekend with European football not yet secure. Lazio, currently seventh in the division sit just two points behind Atalanta.
Empoli make the trip to Bergamo also with spirits raised after a massive 1:0 win against Napoli last weekend. Now three points above the relegation zone, Davide Nicola´s side had lost six of their seven previous league matches.
Away from home, Empoli have struggled for recent form. The Gli Azzurri have lost their last three on the road while failing to score in all three defeats.
While the visitors have not lost heavily since a 7:0 road defeat at Roma earlier this season, I fancy Atalanta to claim a comfortable win this weekend.
La Dea won four of their last five matches against Empoli with at least two goals scored in all four victories. Something similar seems likely at the Gewiss Stadium this weekend.
