The Saudi Arabia Cup is currently being played by the Saudi Arabia team Ittihad with Benzema in a strong match against Shabab, who are considered to be average in strength. Currently in first place in the league, Benzema's club is dominating and has a 4 point lead, having also defeated Hilal in the previous round of the Cup. The team's superiority is clearly visible. In just one game, anything can happen, but in such serious matches, established leaders like Benzema show their full class.
Empoli, fighting for survival in the Serie A league, unexpectedly advanced to the semifinals, where I believe they will fall. The Bologna club, in great form and confidently competing, is a very serious opponent at the moment. Although both teams have drawn 1-1 in the league twice this season, they did not show their superiority against each other, but Bologna has now reached its peak with a sudden jump to 4th place in the Italian league. Although Empoli has eliminated several giants in Italy (Torino, Fiorentina and Juventus), we know how teams like these perform in these stages, but when it comes to the semifinals there will be no room for relaxation, so we can expect good, typical football from Bologna.
I think that this is a strong team and a better team overall. It also has a great series and I don't see how it could lose against Empoli, especially on the edge of relegation. The last matches proved that Empoli is only able to get draws, but against Bologna, who is in such good form, chances are slim. The coefficient for a Bologna win should be around 1.40.
