Lecce form and stats

Lecce's struggle is real here at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare with only 16 points collected from 16 Serie A games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-7-6.

The supporters are hoping that Lecce will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the game against Juventus (placed 3rd). The talented striker Oudin edged out all the other footballers in that game and got a match rating of 8.02 out of 10. Oudin hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Udinese.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Lecce have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 6 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 3 and lost 1.

Trouble hitting the net? In this club's last 10 league matches, 8 have contained zero, one or two goals.

On the other hand, Lecce have conceded 20 goals. Lecce has at home met teams with this table position (low), four times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 3 of 4 times.

Hellas Verona form and stats

There's been little loot from Hellas Verona's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 16 away games in the Serie A. Hellas Verona only have 0 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 7 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Hellas have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 16 consecutive matches without winning on the road.

This match can not go any worse than the last one, the home loss versus Inter with 0-6 on the scoreboard. That loss was their first after four consecutive league fixtures winning points. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Inter was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind. Duda got a match rating of 6.6 in that game, top player of the team. Duda dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

A 1-1 draw at Cremonese's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Hellas Verona playing away and similar expectations, we found 11 relevant matches. Results were 2 Hellas Verona wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats.
