Gamingtips Prediction – Empoli 0:1 Bari 

On paper, Empoli seem huge at odds of 21/20 but Serie B is a very competitive league and there is really only a couple of losses separating these two sides.  Empoli are almost guaranteed a playoff position while Bari must win to push clear of the relegation zone and given the fact that both sides are in very good form, odds of 14/5 about Bari seem very reasonable.
