Venezia vs Lecce Predictions

This match is difficult to call as both sides sit in the bottom three. Lecce have just sacked coach Luca Gotti and could get a new manager bounce. I’m backing them to take a point in Venice.

Lecce Predicted Lineup

Venezia have seen BTTS Yes in 3 of their last 4 matches.
Lecce are undefeated in 11 of their last 12 matches vs Venezia (6 draws).
Lecce are undefeated in 2 of their last 3 Serie A matches (1 win, 1 draw).

Head to Head

Lecce hold a 5-1 advantage over Venezia with six draws in 12 matches.

The clubs last met in May 2021 in Serie B as they played out a 1-1 draw.

Venezia Form & Team News

Venezia sit bottom of the Serie A table with just eight points in 12 matches so far.

After winning in round five for the first time this season, they lost three matches in a row. A 2-2 draw at Monza saw two leads surrendered.

They beat ten-man Udinese 3-2 at an opposition red card when Venezia trailed 2-1. Prior to the FIFA break, they lost 1-0 at Inter Milan and 2-1 at home to Parma having led 1-0.

Coach Eusebio Di Francesco has just one injury to deal with. Winger Bjarki Steinn Bjarkason has not played all season due to a thigh injury.

Midfielder Francesco Zampano is pushing for a recall. He was introduced at half-time in the lost to Parma.

Venezia Predicted Lineup

Stankovic; Candela, Svoboda, Idzes; Zampano, Duncan, Caviglia, Haps; Busio, Pohjanpalo, Oristanio.

Lecce Form & Team News

Lecce sit in the 18th place in Serie A, in the final relegation spot. They’ve scored just five goals in their 12 league matches this term.

A 6-0 home thrashing by Fiorentina was followed by a fifth straight league loss, 1-0 at Napoli. A 1-0 home win followed over nine-man Verona to restore some confidence.

After losing 1-0 at Bologna, Lecce went into the international break with a 1-1 home draw vs Empoli. They put up 1.58 xG and 18 shots in an improved attacking display.

Newly-appointed coach Marco Giampaolo has a doubt over Zambian winger Lameck Banda. He went off injured in the last match.

Attacking midfielder Filip Marchwinski, holding midfielder Balthazar Pierret and defender Kevin Bonifazi are major doubts.

Lecce Predicted Lineup

Falcone; Guilbert, Gaspar, Baschirotto, Gallo; Oudin, Ramadani, Rafia; Dorgu, Krstovic, Pierotti.
