Further markets to consider
Beyond the main tip at the top of the page, two more selections stand out for this match-up:
👉 Prediction: Double Chance - X2
Our analysis suggests there is little separating Empoli and Cremonese in terms of overall quality. However, with the security of the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw is enough to land the bet, we see great value in backing Cremonese.
With odds of 1.48, there’s solid potential for an upset, especially considering Empoli’s recent struggles and Cremonese’s form.
👉 Our prediction is: Draw
Empoli will have the home advantage in this match, and with the quality of their players to the strength of their performances, they will have the upper hand. But even with all that said, our betting tip is to go for a draw in Empoli vs Cremonese.
We just see some flaws that Cremonese can exploit in order to hold the home side to a draw. And with odds of 3.02, the potential payout for a draw is well worth a shot.
