Lecce - Genoa: forecast for the Serie A match

Under Marco Giampaolo, Lecce played a number of quality matches and got out of the relegation zone, but in the last rounds suffered two defeats from Lazio (1:2) and Como (0:2). For now, the "yellow-reds" occupy 17th place in the table.

Current form

Before the start of the championship, Genoa was not a clear contender for relegation from Serie A and with the existing selection of players was quite capable of fighting for a place in the middle of the table. However, in the starting segment, the Griffins faced a huge number of injuries and for this reason failed a number of matches, which led to the resignation of Alberto Gilardino. Under Patrick Vieira, Genoa has improved significantly and quickly moved away from the relegation zone - at the moment, the Genoese are 13th in the table. In the last round, Genoa beat Empoli 2:1, achieving their fourth victory of the season.

Disqualifications and injuries

Malinovsky, Ahanor, Messias, Norton-Caffey, Ekuban, Matturro are injured.

• Genoa have suffered just one defeat in their last eight matches
• Genoa have won two of their last three matches against Lecce

Tentative line-up: Leali - Sabelli, Vazquez, Bani, Martin - Miretti, Badel, Frendrup - Zanoli, Pinamonti, Vitinha.
