Fixture Analysis
It is a Serie B clash, Regular Season - 33 as Sudtirol welcome Empoli to Stadio Marco Druso. Kick-off is set for Saturday 10 April 2027 at 13:00 UTC.
Form Analysis
Looking at all fixtures this season, Sudtirol stand at 3W 5D 2L from 10 Serie B matches — 1.40 PPG. Last five: W D W D W. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 0.80 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.80 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base. Sudtirol have played only a handful of Serie B games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Sudtirol at Stadio Marco Druso this season: 2W 5D 3L from 10 home games — 1.10 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 0.70 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Empoli — All Games: 3W 2D 5L from 10 Serie B fixtures this season — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W L W L L. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Empoli have played only a handful of Serie B games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
On the road, Empoli have gone 1W 2D 7L from 10 away fixtures this term (0.50 PPG). Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.50 is notably below their overall 1.10 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Sudtirol 1.40 PPG, Empoli 1.10 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H
The rivalry is an even one: 1 wins apiece for Sudtirol, 1 for Empoli and 0 shared spoils from 2 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.
The 2 previous meetings have averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 17 Jan 2026, ended 1–0 with Sudtirol winning.
The head-to-head offers no strong directional steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the predictive model and current market pricing should carry more weight than the historical record for this fixture.
In-Play Data
Sudtirol trading profile (43 games, 22 at home): they score before half-time in 59% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 53% of the time; BTTS occurs in 46% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 32% of games (home games); they fail to score in 37% of games.
Empoli trading profile (43 games, 22 at away): they score before half-time in 54% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 94% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Sudtirol 51% versus Empoli 58%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Sudtirol 35% | Empoli 46%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Sudtirol 1.44 xG and Empoli 0.85 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Sudtirol attack 0.942 / defence 0.775 | Empoli attack 0.931 / defence 1.122. League average goals — home 1.366 / away 1.184. Sudtirol's defence rating of 0.775 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 43 Sudtirol games / 43 Empoli games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Sudtirol 51% | Draw 27% | Empoli 22%. Fair-value odds: Sudtirol 1.96 | Draw 3.70 | Empoli 4.55. Sudtirol hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 40% | BTTS probability 44% | Total xG 2.30. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 60% — total xG of 2.30 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 44% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Sudtirol at 51% — moderate model lean. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Sudtirol offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.30 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 40% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 44% on No. Form rates are neutral: Sudtirol 40% | Empoli 60%.

Across their last 43 outings, Sudtirol have picked up 1.16 PPG on a 10W 20D 13L record — W-D-W-D-W across the most recent five. It's still early in the season for Sudtirol, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.
Empoli's form line: 11W 14D 18L from 43 games, 1.09 PPG, last five W-L-W-L-L. It's still early in the season for Empoli, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.
Form-wise this is close to level: Sudtirol on 1.16 PPG, Empoli on 1.09. Other factors will likely decide this one more than recent results.
