Empoli traveled between Serie A and Serie B several times in recent years. Still, in the last season, they finished 14th and will be around that place this season too. Currently, they are in 14th place with 39 points - nine points away from the relegation zone with only three rounds left.
Empoli struggled offensively this season with only 32 goals in 35, but lately, they have been efficient with six scored goals in the last three games.
Juventus will not win any title this season since Sevilla just eliminated them from the Europa League Semi-Finals. In the league, they are 2nd with 69 points, and their only goal is to finish in the top four and secure the Champions League next season.
Juventus have been a totally different team at home and on the road this season. At home, they are the best team in Serie A with 42 points from 18 matches, while on the road, they won only 27 points in 17 games.
Empoli vs Juventus pick: Empoli to cover the +1 AH spread
Empoli won seven points in the last three games with six goals scored. They also lost just once by two or more goals in the previous 11 games.
Empoli lost just six times in 17 home games in Serie A this season.
Juventus won eight times in 17 road games in Serie A. They also scored just 16 goals in those 17 matches.
Juventus were just eliminated from Europa League, and that could affect the team morale, especially on the road, where they tend to struggle to win games. Even if Juventus wins, I do not think it will be more than one goal difference.
