The league table in Serie A tells a story about these teams so far, with Lazio leading Lecce by 11 points. Match preview to follow:
The hosts Lazio saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Europa League. This match was also played here at Stadio Olimpico. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Lecce have had more rest.
Lazio form and stats
Overall Serie A stats at home this season for Lazio, who have the the best goal difference (+10) at home in Serie A, are 3-2-0 (wins-draw-losses).
The Lazio crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Celtic here at Stadio Olimpico in a Europa League match. A strong away win before that one, visiting Milan and winning 2-1.
Lazio are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (14 goals in 5 games). From these home matches, Lazio have conceded only 4 goals.
Lecce form and stats
2-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Lecce, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Serie A, in their Serie A matches away. Sharing is caring, but Lecce are perhaps overdoing it with their four draws in a row. Visiting Lecce has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.
Lecce delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Sassuolo (placed 11th) in their previous match; a Serie A game. Before that, Lecce travelled to Sampdoria and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Lecce's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won 2 of these as expected, 2 of them by at least two goals. Lecce managed 0 draws and 0 surprise wins.
The travelling fans enjoy Lecce's attacking play in away games, having scored 9 goals in 6 league matches away. Lecce have conceded 12 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last eight meetings between these two teams are: 4 wins for Lazio, 3 draws and 1 win for Lecce. Over 2,5 goals: 3 times; under 2,5 goals: 5 games.Top Goalscorers
