As the season draws nearer to a close, the Serie A could provide us with a title race that might go down to the wire. Mathematically speaking, four sides still have a legit sniff at the title and consistency is the key factor that will come into play.
On that note, Milan cannot afford to drop points when they welcome Empoli to their home turf. The Rossoneri’s lead at the top is only by a mere two points and local rivals Inter Milan are in second place, with a game in hand.
AC Milan’s next five league games will be against sides in the lower half and this could be a chance for them to solidify their title credentials. They come into this game full of confidence, having edged out Napoli courtesy of Olivier Giroud last time out. That win saw their unbeaten run extend to eight games, in which they have won four.

Unlike the early stages of the season, Milan’s defence has tremendously improved of late. It is no surprise they have recorded five clean sheets from their last eight outings across all competitions. The duo of Fikayo Tomori and Pierre Kalulu has been rock-solid and I can see that extending into this game as well.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic could also be making his return and there are early claims he could play alongside Olivier Giroud on Saturday. Quite exciting for Milan fans to say the least.
Of all the sides that gained promotion, Empoli have been the ‘best’ out of them. Regardless, their recent run of form has been woeful. They are without a win in their last 12 games across all competitions. It makes it even worse that their attacking returns have been equally poor to go with.
While they might be 10 points above the relegation zone at the moment, they will need to start gathering points soon or start watching over their shoulders. Unfortunately, Milan’s quest for their first Scudetto since 2011 will be hard to match and I can see Empoli suffering yet another defeat here. There is also a strong possibility the hosts might win and record a clean sheet as well.

Olivier Giroud is a man on form at the moment, having scored five goals in his last eight matches across all competitions. With eight goals, he is level with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Rafael Leao for most league goals scored by any Milan player so far this season. I am backing him to find the net once again.
Five of Milan’s last six goals scored in Serie A home games came before half-time and I’m hinting at a similar outcome this time around.
What is a Bet Builder?
A bet builder is a kind of accumulator bet solely focussed on one match. A standard acca features multiple selections across different selections combined together into one bet. If one selection loses, the whole bet loses. A bet builder is similar but each selection is placed on the same match. Similar to the American prop bet, the bet builder goes into detail on a single match. Common selections include match outcome, total goals, cards, corners, and players to score.
