General match analysis

Calcio Padova sit 10th and have won 4 of their 10 matches, while 18th-placed Empoli have managed just 2 victories. In their last five games, the hosts have collected 7 points, compared with just 2 for the visitors, who have also conceded 11 goals, against Padova’s 5. At home, Padova concede an average of 1 goal per match, while Empoli concede 1.6 away from home, which points to the hosts despite their modest scoring record. However, the visitors create slightly better chances on the road, averaging 1.26 xG compared with Padova’s 1.03 at home, and have scored in every away match, so a draw remains a realistic possibility. Padova are tipped to win primarily on the strength of their clearly superior recent form and more solid defence.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS landed in 80% of Empoli’s matches and 40% of Padova’s, providing a moderate signal for both teams to score. Empoli scored in every match, while Padova conceded an average of 1.8 goals per game, with opponents recording an average xG of 2.02. Empoli, in turn, conceded an average of 1.6 goals per game, rising to 2.2 across their last five matches, which boosts Padova’s chances of scoring despite averaging just 1.0 goal. The main risk to a BTTS - Yes pick is that Padova failed to score in 40% of its matches; however, Empoli’s poor defending tips the assessment in favour of BTTS.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: this line has been beaten in 80% of Empoli’s matches and 60% of Padova’s. Empoli have scored in each of their last 5 matches, while Padova have conceded in 80% of their games, increasing the likelihood of at least one away goal. On the other hand, Empoli have conceded an average of 2.2 goals over their last 5 matches, so Padova also have a realistic chance of scoring. The forecast of 2.67 goals is close to the league average of 2.65, but the data offer less support for the 2.5 line: it has been beaten in 60% of Empoli’s matches and only 40% of Padova’s. Therefore, the 1.5 line offers a clearer edge than betting on at least 3 goals.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Padova led at the break in 3 of its last 5 matches, while Empoli were trailing at half-time in 2 of 5; therefore, the case for the home side to lead at the break is stronger than for the visitors. Over the same period, Padova won 2 matches and Empoli none, while conceding an average of 1.0 and 2.2 goals per match, respectively. Recent second-half form also supports Padova holding on to its advantage: they conceded an average of 0.6 goals after the break, compared with 1.4 for Empoli. The risk of a turnaround remains real, as season data show Padova conceding an average of 1.4 goals after the break, so 1/1 is not a high-confidence pick. Even so, the combination of Padova leading at the break more often and their clearly better recent results makes 1/1 the most likely individual scenario in the HT/FT market.
