Lazio – Lecce. Forecast and announcement for the match of the Italian championship

On November 23, Lazio – Lecce will hold their meeting within the framework of the 12th round of the Italian Serie A. I offer mine at 19:00 Kyiv time.

Lazio

This season, the capital club does not play in European cups, which should have been an advantage against the background of competitors who have to play on two fronts. While Lazio clearly does not live up to expectations, occupying a modest ninth place in the tournament table. In the last round, the club lost away to one of the leaders, Inter Milan, with a score of 0:2, thus ending a streak of six matches without defeat in the championship.

If we recall home meetings this season, the “white and blue” have 3 wins, one draw and a defeat in the derby against Roma. If the results do not improve, head coach Maurizio Sarri may lose his position, the gap to the top 4 is 7 points. Cancellieri, Castellanos, Dele-Bashira, Gigot and Rovella will miss the upcoming meeting due to injuries, Hyusai is a question.

Lecce

After 11 rounds, the “wolves” occupy a modest 15th place in the tournament table, the distance from the danger zone is only three points. In the last round, Lecce failed to beat Verona, one of the outsiders, on its field – 0:0. The team has problems with the attack, 8 goals scored in 11 games is not the indicator with which you can feel comfortable in the elite of Italian football.

The club cannot set big goals for itself, the minimum task is to maintain registration in Serie A. Lecce plays well away from home, 7 points out of ten, the team has scored on the road, but has not even won at home yet. Zhan will definitely miss the upcoming match, Markhvinsky remains in question.

Personal meetings

The historical advantage in face-to-face confrontations is on the side of Lazio, who won almost twice as often. Last season, the teams exchanged away victories, the Romans won 2:1, and Lecce took revenge – 1:0.

Forecast

The Roman club is quoted as the favorite of this pair, Lazio is higher in the table, plays at home, and is also stronger in terms of composition. Lecce will try to score points in the capital, as they did last season. Both teams do not impress with stability, but need points. I would risk making a bet on a clean win for the home team at 1.64.
