Lecce form and stats

Lecce's struggle is real here at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare with only 17 points collected from 18 Serie A games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-8-7.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Lecce, as their goalkeeper Wladimiro Falcone has completely shut out the opponents for 180 minutes in the Serie A.

It's back home for Lecce, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Monza away with the result 1-0. Colombo found the net in that victory. At last, a league win after four matches without. Manager Baroni felt very clever after Colombo scored the winning goal against Monza, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 86th minute. Falcone, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 7.5 out of 10 in that game. Falcone saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Spezia that ended 0-0.

Trouble hitting the net? In this team's last 14 league games, 11 have produced two goals or less.

Lecce have scored {16 league goals} here from 18 matches, not a lot. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Lecce have conceded 21 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
