Prediction: 1-1
AS Roma
There will be fireworks when Lecce and Roma face each other in the South Italy derby on Matchday 22. Lecce did well to beat Cremonese at the weekend, with the team moving one step closer to securing the Serie A survival, but they face a difficult task against Jose Mourinho’s troops. Alexis Blin limped off with injury in the last league match, with Kristoffer Askildsen likely to step up. All Youssef Maleh, Kastriot Dermaku, and Marin Pongracic remain in the treatment room.
Meanwhile, the capital club quickly bounced back from a 2-1 loss to Napoli, with the team beating Empoli 2-0 in front of home fans. Marco Baroni’s men, though, are tough to beat at home, and we believe that gamblers from all around the world can find value in betting on draw. Fit-again striker Tammy Abraham should continue to lead the line for the visitors, while both Leonardo Spinazzola and Georginio Wijnaldum miss out with injuries.
