Lazio

WWDWDD 📈

Lazio will play in this fixture coming off the back of a 2-2 Serie A tied result vs Inter Milan.

In that game, Lazio had 44% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. The only player to score for Lazio was Pedro (72', 90'). Inter Milan had 10 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Yann Aurel Bisseck (45') and Denzel Dumfries (79') scored for Inter Milan.

Lazio have been on a persistent run of goalscoring form, hitting the target in each and every one of their last 6 matches.

They’ve managed to rack up 11 during that period and have conceded a total of 6.

Their past results show that Lazio:

• haven't been beaten in the league by Lecce in their last 2 games.
• are undefeated in their previous 7 home league matches.
• have not won at home in their last 6 league matches. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

Lecce

LLDLDW

Lecce go into this clash following a 1-0 Serie A win with the defeat of Torino in their most recent match.

In that game, Lecce had 42% possession and 10 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Lecce was Ylber Ramadani (46'). Torino got 10 shots at goal with 4 of them on target.

It has become apparent that Lecce have made hard work of scoring goals over their previous 6 encounters, recording the unsatisfactory return of only 4. In those matches, Giallorossi have also seen the overall goal aggregate of opposing teams equal 8. We shall soon find out if that trend can be continued on here.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Lecce:

• have not emerged victorious against Lazio when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league games. Not the best of away records.
• are undefeated in their last 2 league matches away from home.
• have not won away from home in their last 6 league matches.

📋 Team News: Lazio

Manuel Lazzari (muscular problems) and Patric (Ankle surgery) will not be able to play for Lazio gaffer Marco Baroni.

In our view, i Biancocelesti look set to kick off with a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game, utilising Christos Mandas, Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli, Nuno Tavares, Matteo Guendouzi, Nicolo Rovella, Gustav Isaksen, Boulaye Dia, Mattia Zaccagni and Valentin Castellanos.

ℹ️ Team News: Lecce

Lecce manager Marco Giampaolo has multiple availability issues to deal with. Joan González (heart problems), Filip Marchwinski (Cruciate ligament tear) and Gaby Jean (Cruciate ligament tear) can’t be considered.

From our viewpoint, Giallorossi appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup by sending out Wladimiro Falcone, Frederic Guilbert, Kialonda Gaspar, Federico Baschirotto, Antonino Gallo, Lassana Coulibaly, Ylber Ramadani, Santiago Pierotti, Medon Berisha, Jesper Karlsson and Nikola Krstovic.

🧠 Prediction

Our assessment is that Lazio have it within them to be able to score a couple when they meet Lecce, who could well find it tough finding the net themselves.

We’re therefore expecting to see a controlled 2-0 win for Lazio at the end of the match.
