Lecce have had a poor start to their campaign, earning only one point from a possible nine. As a result, Eusebio Di Francesco's men are last in Serie A after the first three rounds.
On the other hand, Cagliari have a 1-1-1 win-draw-loss record. They are brimming with confidence after earning their first win of the season against Parma last weekend.
