Struggling Lecce will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Inter in the upcoming league round. It’s 17th vs 2nd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
It's quite the trip for Inter when visiting Lecce as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.
Lecce form and stats
With 0 Serie A wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Lecce are certainly not brimming with confidence. With nine home games in a row without a win, the Lecce fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Spezia game long ago, can be stopped today. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Lecce with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Genoa game, 42 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
Lecce are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 180 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by D. Farias).
Lecce lost their last game at Parma (placed 7th) after a 0-2 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Lecce lost 0-1 at home to Udinese.
The Lecce fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 9 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 17 goals have been conceded.
Inter form and stats
The strength of Inter, who have the most points (25) away in Serie A, on their travels this season is incredible with 25 points collected from 9 Serie A away games. Inter has 8-1-0 on the road, with 22 goals scored and 9 conceded. Things are running smoothly for Inter who hasn't tasted defeat in their last twelve matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Juventus.
Inter are travelling after their nice 4-1 home win in the Coppa Italia against Cagliari (placed 6th). Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Atalanta in the Serie A.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Inter are regular goalscorers on their travels. Inter have conceded 9 goals in these away matches.
