Match description
Empoli has a clear advantage in chance creation at home: on average 14.39 shots of which 4.67 are on target and 1.5 goals per match with xG 1.57, versus 8.06 shots, 2.39 on target and 0.94 goals away for Avellino (xG 0.93). Defensively the hosts concede on average 1.17 goals at home (xG against 1.17), while Avellino concedes 1.61 goals on the road (xG against 1.67), indicating weaker resilience from the visitors. The difference in finishing is significant: Empoli fail to score in only 11% of home matches, whereas Avellino fail to score in 39% of away matches, despite a slightly higher conversion rate 12% vs 10%. On the other hand Empoli record as many as 61% draws in home matches and over the last 5 fixtures they average only 0.8 points versus 1.4 for Avellino, which limits confidence in a win. Considering Empoli’s advantage in xG (1.57 vs 0.93), number of shots (14.39 vs 8.06) and the hosts’ low FTS (11% vs 39%), I predict a home victory.
