LIVORNO - EMPOLI PREDICTIONS

It’s all down to the final match to see which side can make a return to Italy Serie A. Livorno take a 1-1 draw back their home ground, with both sides from Tuscany there is extra spice to this match. All to play for in this Italy Serie B playoff.

 Livorno were the best side outside the top two and go into this game as clear favourites to progress.They were undone on the final day of the season as they went down to Serie B winners Sassuolo. Livorno are in good form with 5 wins and 4 draws and 2 defeats from their last 11 Italy Serie B games.  With 19 goals scored and 10 conceded the team are playing well at the moment. Livorno went into the last game of the season with a tough match and ended up losing in a very tight affair. They finished the season in 3^rd and ended up 9 points ahead of rivals Empoli, with a record of 23 wins, 11 draws and 8 defeats. Livorno have a very strong attacking squad and key players are Brazilians Paulinho and Emerson, with strong support from livewire striker Federico Dionisi.

Empoli are in very good form but go into the game as outsiders to make the jump to Italy Serie A. They are in good form with 7 wins and 4 draw and 1 defeats from their last 11 Italy Serie B games.  With 20 goals scored and just 7 conceded (with six clean sheets in that time) The team from Tuscany are a very strong all round side. They finished the season in 4^thand ended up 9 points behind rivals Livorno, with a record of 20 wins, 13 draws and 9 defeats. Empoli have a very strong attacking squad and have two of the deadliest strikers in Serie B. Veteren duo Massimo Maccarrone and Francesco Tavano have 41 goals between them with fellow frontman Riccardo Saponara chipping in with 13 in what is a fearsome front three.

LIVORNO - EMPOLI: BETTING TIPS

Huge game this one with so much riding on it. The 1^st leg was a tight game for the 1^st hour but then Livorno laid siege to the Empoli goal and only for fantastic display of goalkeeping from Davide Bassi and some wayward finishing prevented Livorno sealing the win. Livorno have not really extended themselves in these playoff and indeed have drawn 1-1 three times so far! If this game finishes a tie at 90 minutes we get and extra 30 minutes to play in which Empoli must grab a winner or Livorno promote due to finishing higher. We take The Draw again here at a rather large 3.30 (bet365) Too much hinges on this game and with both sides playing with the utmost caution a draw is very likely again.
