Lazio
WWDWDD 📈
Lazio enter this fixture coming off the back of a 2-2 Serie A stalemate 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'). For their opponents, Inter Milan got 10 attempts on goal with 3 of them 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 will come into the match after a 1-0 Serie A win with the defeat of Torino in their last outing.
In that match, Lecce managed 42% possession and 10 shots at goal with 4 on target. The scorer for Lecce was Ylber Ramadani (46'). Torino had 10 attempts at goal with 4 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.

ℹ️
Team News: Lazio
Manuel Lazzari (muscular problems) and Patric (Ankle surgery) will not be able to play for Lazio gaffer Marco Baroni.
We think that i Biancocelesti could opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation this time with Christos Mandas, Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli, Nuno Tavares, Matteo Guendouzi, Nicolò Rovella, Gustav Isaksen, Matias Vecino, Mattia Zaccagni and V. Castellanos.
ℹ️
Team News: Lecce
Lecce boss Marco Giampaolo has to choose a team with limited availability. Joan González (heart problems), Filip Marchwinski (Cruciate ligament tear) and Gaby Jean (Cruciate ligament tear) are those who can’t be considered.
We believe Giallorossi could decide to utilise a 4-3-3 formation by sending out Wladimiro Falcone, Frédéric Guilbert, Federico Baschirotto, Kialonda Gaspar, Antonino Gallo, Lassana Coulibaly, Ylber Ramadani, T. Jóhann Helgason, Santiago Pierotti, Nikola Krstovic and Konan N'Dri.
⚡
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.
