Match announcement
Lecce
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.

Empoli
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.

In the last home match, Lecce looked confident against one of the main competitors in the fight for survival, Verona, and today they will certainly strive to build on their success. At home, the Yellow-Reds traditionally take most of the points, and mistakes in such matches could well result in relegation - Empoli is currently in decline, does not have a serious advantage in class, Lecce is capable of pulling themselves together and playing another strong home match.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Lecce victory . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.35
Bet on total
“Lecce” will certainly strive only for victory at home and will probably go forward with a large force and take risks already in the first half. It is unlikely that “Empoli” has a chance to play to zero in such a situation, the Tuscans have been conceding regularly lately. At the same time, the “Azzurri” have scored in all away matches of the current season, “Lecce” is also not ideal in defense, an exchange of goals will certainly take place.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered with odds of 2.09
Combined rate
"Lecce" places a special emphasis on home matches, where it is traditionally unyielding and knows how to snatch its points, in the last home match against "Verona" Gotti charges demonstrated this. The "yellow-reds" are quite capable of repeating the success, but it is unlikely that they will be able to beat "Empoli" without scoring - the "azzurri" have high-level players ahead of them and the Tuscans score away in every match.
The bet is Lecce win and both teams will score. This bet is offered for 5.70
