Lazio gana
ITALY: Serie A - Matchday 17
Lecce, currently fourteenth in the standings with 16 points, 10 goals scored, and 27 conceded, hosts Lazio, who sit fifth with 31 points, 30 goals scored, and 23 conceded.
As I write this, yesterday’s match between Lazio and Inter ended with a shocking score of 6-0 in favor of the Milanese team. However, I do not forget the good things Lazio has done recently, and I believe they will want to bounce back immediately against Giampaolo’s Lecce.
The home team will be without defenders Gallo and Gaspar, two quite important players. Nevertheless, I think Lazio will win this match because, excluding the setback against Inter, they have only lost once in their last five away games, that being against Parma.
I must also mention that Lecce comes into this match with two wins and two draws at home, including an important victory against Monza. It is evident that the new coach, Giampaolo, has managed to solve some issues. However, Baroni’s team undoubtedly has more quality, and at the Via del Mare stadium, it feels like we will see an offensive and determined Lazio.
Certainly, looking at the last three head-to-head matches played at Lecce’s home ground, the data is not encouraging, as Lazio has lost the last three encounters. However, I believe this time the story could be different, with Lazio rightfully favored.
I have confidence in the visitors.
