Lecce vs Spezia Predictions


This is a key match in the relegation battle. Neither side is in good form but Spezia can be hard to beat on the road. I am backing a draw with Under 2.5 goals in the match.

  • Lecce have seen Under 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 home matches.

Head to Head


Leece hold a 3-2 advantage across nine previous meetings with four draws. 

The reverse fixture finished in a 0-0 draw back in January.

Lecce Form & Team News


The Giallorossi have won just once in 12 Serie A matches. They’re just two points above the relegation places with three matches left.

After a run of seven losses in eight matches (one draw), they ended their slump with a 1-0 home win against Udinese. A 2-1 loss at Juventus and a 1-0 home loss to Verona followed. 

Last time out, they picked up a fine 2-2 draw away at Lazio. A goal conceded in the 94th minute cost them two points. 

Coach Marco Baroni is without centre back Kastriot Dermaku due to injury. Fellow centre half Marin Pongracic is injured but he wouldn’t have started. 

Left winger Lameck Banda is suspended for this match.

Lecce Predicted Lineup


Falcone; Gendrey, Baschirotto, Umtiti, Gallo; Blin, Hjulmand, Oudin; Strefezza, Colombo, Ceesday.

Spezia Form & Team News


Spezia sit 17th in Serie A, two points behind Lecce and only outside the drop zone on goal difference. Their last 17 matches have only seen two wins and they came against top opponents.

A seven-match winless run at the turn of the year was ended by a 2-1 home win against Inter Milan. They won none of their next eight matches as three successive losses put them in the drop zone.

They ended their streak without victory last weekend. Two goals in the final 15 minutes brought a famous 2-0 home win against AC Milan.

Right back Emil Holm is out injured. On-loan winger Daniel Maldini has missed the last month and remains doubtful.

Utility man Simone Bastoni is out for the season. Coach Leonardo Semplici could name an unchanged XI from the Milan win.

Spezia Predicted Lineup


Dragowski; Ampadu, Wisniewski, Nikolaou; Amian, Bourabia, Esposito, Ekdal, Reca; Nzola, Gyasi.

Verdict

I can't separate these struggling sides. I see a draw with few goals on display.
