Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Lecce will look to recover from a 1-0 loss to Bologna when they face Empoli on Matchday 12. The Giallorossi have been struggling in the new Serie A campaign, sitting in the rock-bottom position, but it has to be noted that 14th-place Parma are only one point clear of Luca Gotti’s troops. All Balthazar Pierret, Luis Hasa, Filip Marchwinski, Catalin Burnete, Kevin Bonifazi, and Medon Berisha miss out with injuries for the home side.
The Azzurri, on the other hand, defeated Como 1-0 in their last league match, but given their ups and downs on the road, punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. You should know that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last four meetings in the Italian top flight. All Jacopo Fazzini, Alberto Grassi, Saba Sazonov, Samuele Perisan, and Tyronne Ebuehi are injured for the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Lecce):
When you imagine a yellow-red shirt, Lecce must be the first club that comes to your mind. Founded back in 1908, Lecce are Italian club that will compete in the Serie A in the 2019/2020 season. The Giallorossi return to the Italian top flight following a seven-year absence and, as always, they will host their rivals at Stadio Via del Mare.
The venue which was opened on September 11, 1966 can hold up to 33,876 people. The likes of Antonio Conte, Graziano Pelle, Javier Chevanton, Juan Cuadrado, Mirko Vucinic, Fabrizio Miccoli and Massimo Oddo are one of the most notable footballers who played for the Italian club in the past.
Lecce and Gallipoli face each other in the Salento derby and there have been fireworks in meetings between the two clubs since the 2009/2010 Serie B season when they first met in the league.
