Lecce vs Empoli. Prediction (odds 5.70) and bets on the Serie A match

Current form

Last season, Lecce accomplished a feat, managing to maintain their place in Serie A, having a very modest selection of players even compared to their competitors. In the summer, the “yellow-reds” lost several important players, but managed to strengthen themselves – with this lineup, Luca Gotti, with luck and a large number of injuries, is quite capable of solving the problem of maintaining a place in the elite.

http://www.uslecce.it/>Lecce started the season with two defeats in a row against Atalanta (0:4) and Inter (0:2), but then the calendar was simpler and they managed to get important points. The yellow-reds got their first victory in the third round, beating Cagliari with a score of 1:0. However, they had to wait until the end of October for the next one, beating Verona with the same score in the tenth round.

In the last round, Lecce gave Bologna a fight away, but they lacked class and reserves, and in the end the Rossoblu scored and won the match. The defeat was the seventh for the Yellow-Reds this season and dropped them to the last place in the table. However, the situation has not yet become critical – Lecce is only one point behind the saving 17th place, which can be won back today.

Disqualifications and injuries

Berisha, Bonifaczi, Marchwinski, Burnet and Hasa are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

• Lecce have lost six of their last seven matches
• Lecce have failed to score in six of their last seven matches
• Lecce have scored against Empoli in their last two matches

Probable line-up : Falcone – Gilbert, Gaspard, Bascirotto, Gallo – Rafia, Ramadani, Pierotti – Dorgu, Krstovic, Rebic.

Current form

Last season, Empoli saved their place in Serie A literally at the last second, managing to snatch precious points and send Frosinone to Serie B instead. Traditionally, the Azzurri sold several important players in the summer, but also kept several, strengthening several positions. Roberto D'Aversa, who has successful experience with mid-table teams, was appointed head coach.

https://www.empolifc.com/>Empoli had a brilliant start to the season and became one of the main revelations of the start of the season in Serie A. Empoli suffered its first defeat in the seventh round, losing minimally away to Lazio, having produced a powerful series and simultaneously knocking Catanzaro and Torino out of the Cup. However, after the defeat in Rome, the Tuscans predictably slowed down and dropped in the table.

Empoli are currently 11th in the table with 14 points and six points clear of the relegation zone – a significant handicap, but stability has been lacking lately. In the last round, the Azzurri beat Como 1-0 at home in a very difficult match, thus achieving their third victory of the season and ending a five-match winless streak.

Disqualifications and injuries

Esposito, Ebuehi, Zurkovski, Fazzini, Perisan, Sazonov and Grassi are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

• Empoli have only won one of their last six matches.
• Empoli have conceded in four of their last five matches
• Empoli have not beaten Lecce in their last four away games, with two defeats and two draws.

Probable line-up : Vazquez - De Sciglio, Ismaili, Viti - Gyasi, Henderson, Anjorin, Pezzella - Pellegri, Solbakken - Colombo.
