Empoli hosts Napoli in a game from the 29th round of the Italian Serie A. This is a clash between two teams of very different quality. One of them is fighting for its survival in the league, while the other one is trying to secure a Champions League qualification for next season. We will give our expert football predictions for this game.

Empoli are currently 17th in the Serie A, having seven points advantage in front of Palermo. So far they are feeling safe, but things could change very quickly if they suffer a serious dip in form or start losing too many points. Empoli need to win some more points, if they want to guarantee their survival in the Serie A.

As for Napoli, they remain one of the strongest teams in the league. Maurizio Sarri’s boys are currently third in the standings with 60 points won, just two points behind the 2nd Roma. Napoli’s main goal remains a qualification for the Champions League. And if they can make it a direct one, by taking the 2nd place in the table, then it’s even better for them.

Andres Tello and Levan Mchedlidze are doubtful for the home team because of injuries. Except them, everyone else at Empoli is healthy and ready to play.

Maurizio Sarri is lucky to have his full squad on his disposal, so we should expect to see the best possible Napoli team against Empoli  this weekend.

Napoli are the heavy favourite to win this game. They are just a team from entirely different quality. They still need to win every game possible, because if they lose their grip, they could lose their Champions League place as well.

These are our football predictions for the game between Empoli and Napoli in the Serie A. We wish you a good luck with this one!
