The Serie A league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 18th and 4th respectively.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

Lecce form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Serie A game of the season here at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare. Last season these fans witnessed 13 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss from Lecce's 18 home games.

Lecce are returning here after visiting Torino in a Serie A game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Inter (0-4).

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lecce as they are travelling to their away game against SPAL in the Serie A. That match is three days after this one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Lecce at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
