Team Analysis
Inter Milan, known for the best defensive line in Serie A, will compete against the league's weakest attack on Monday evening in a clash against Empoli. This game will wrap up the 30th Gameweek of Italian Serie A at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Inter Milan maintain a strong home record, having won 13 of the last 15 home matches against Empoli. Additionally, Lautaro Martinez, who has topped the league's scoring charts with 23 goals in 26 appearances, provides Inter Milan with a formidable advantage.

Meanwhile, Empoli suffered three consecutive league losses without scoring a single point. This predicament positions the team just one point above the relegation zone, indicating Empoli's struggling situation. As a result, Inter Milan is poised to regain momentum and secure a commanding victory over Empoli, after a couple of regrettable slip-ups. Although they had a 1-1 draw against Napoli in the previous round, Inter Milan is 14 points clear at the top of the standings and confidently vying for the league title.

Head-to-Head
Historically, Inter Milan has been a force to reckon with, having won 25, drawn 2, and lost 3 out of 30 clashes with Empoli. Specifically, Inter Milan managed to secure a 1-0 victory against Empoli in this term's competition in September at Stadio Carlo Castellani. It is remarkable that none of the previous three matches saw goals scored by both ends.

Odds Analysis
The significant quality differential between the two teams is evident in this match-up. Empoli's recent form, marked by three consecutive defeats and failure to score, does not bode well for a contest against the Serie A leaders. A prominent prediction, given that Inter Milan has won 13 of the last 15 home matches against Empoli, is for the home team to dominate both halves, reflected in odds of 2.50.

Lautaro Martinez, the league's top scorer, stands a good prospect of increasing his impressive tally in this home match against relegation-threatened opposition, with odds for him to score anytime standing at 1.80. Moreover, the final score prediction leans towards a 4-0 victory for Inter Milan, backed by odds of 11.00.

Pick: Inter Milan to win both halves
