Lazio

WWDWDD 📈

Lazio go into this match after a 2-2 Serie A drawn game vs Inter Milan.

In that match, Lazio had 44% possession and 12 shots at goal with 4 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Lazio was Pedro (72', 90'). On the other side, Inter Milan got 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 head into the game after a 1-0 Serie A win over Torino in their previous fixture.

In that match, Lecce managed 42% possession and 10 shots at goal with 4 on target. The only player to score for Lecce was Ylber Ramadani (46'). Torino had 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) won’t be playing for Lazio boss Marco Baroni.

It looks as if i Biancocelesti may well use a 4-2-3-1 formation this time and select Christos Mandas, Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli, Luca Pellegrini, Matteo Guendouzi, Nicolo Rovella, Gustav Isaksen, Boulaye Dia, Mattia Zaccagni and Valentin Castellanos.

🗞️ Team News: Lecce

Lecce boss Marco Giampaolo has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Joan González (heart problems), Filip Marchwinski (Cruciate ligament tear) and Gaby Jean (Cruciate ligament tear) are not ready for selection.

There’s a good chance that Giallorossi seem likely to begin the game with a 4-3-3 system, going with Wladimiro Falcone, Frederic Guilbert, Kialonda Gaspar, Federico Baschirotto, Antonino Gallo, Lassana Coulibaly, Mohamed Kaba, Ylber Ramadani, Santiago Pierotti, Nikola Krstovic and Jesper Karlsson.

✨ 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.
