Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Lecce
Match Time & Date:
29/09/2019
09:00 AM
Prediction: 1-2
AS Roma
Lecce and Roma, the two clubs from the Southern Italy, face each other at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare for the first time since 2012. Back then Lecce defeated Roma 4-2 at home ground, but this time out the Romans are seen as hot favourites to win Sunday’s football match. The capital club aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Atalanta and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Lecce.
Roma did well to beat Bologna 2-1 in their last away game and seeing that key attacker Edin Dzeko is likely to lead the line for the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on Paulo Fonseca’s troops. The newcomers did well to beat SPAL 3-1 on the road in their last league fixture, but Roma are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the hosts than their previous rivals.

Highlighted Player (Fabio Lucioni):
Fabio Lucioni is a product of Ternana football school. Lucioni played for the youth team of Ternana from 2002 to 2005 and he eventually made 14 appearances for the first team. The 185-cm-tall defender played for the likes of Monopoli, Noicattaro, Gela, Barletta, Spezia and Reggina in the past as well before joining Benevento in 2014.
Lucioni has established himself as a first-team regular at the club and it has to be noted that he scored three goals in 46 appearances for Benevento in the 2016/2017 Serie B campaign. The Stregoni secured promotion to the Serie A by beating Carpi in the play-offs final, meaning that Lucioni will have a chance to test a top-flight football in the 2017/2018 season.
Lucioni’s main position is centre-back and his contract with Benevento expires on June 30, 2018. The left-footed defender, who was born in Terni on September 25, 1987, has yet to earn a call-up for the Italian national football team.
Highlighted Team (AS Roma):
AS Roma is a professional football club based in Rome. Roma were founded by a merger in 1927 and they play in the Italian Serie A. Roma’s fiercest rivals are Lazio and it has to be noted that both capital clubs play their home games at Stadio Olimpico. The two local rivals face each other in the Derby della Capitale, which is considered one of the most exciting derbies in the world of football.
The Giallorossi (The Yellow and Reds) have won three Serie A titles (1941/1942, 1982/1983, 2000/2001), while winning nine Coppa Italia trophies. The colour of Roma’s shirts is imperial purple with a golden yellow trim. A number of top-class footballers were part of Roma in the past, but Francesco Totti is undisputedly the club’s biggest legend.The Prince of Rom made his 601 appearances for Roma on 14 May, 2016 when the Giallorossi recorded a 3-1 win over Milan at Stadio San Siro.
