Lecce vs Lazio Preview – Latest Form, Team News, and Possible Lineups
Both teams have done well recently, so we expect an interesting match. Here's a closer look at the teams before they meet:
Lecce
After winning their last two games in Serie A, Lecce managed to climb up the standings a bit and now they are sitting in the 16th spot in Serie A, with fifteen points from the same number of games. While that is hardly impressive and Lecce remains just a couple of spots ahead of the relegation zone, they are also eight points ahead of the first team in the zone.
When it comes to team news, Lecce is fully fit ahead of this game and they will be able to field their best team.
Lecce Predicted Lineup:
Falcone – Gendrey, Baschirotto, Umtiti, Gallo – Blin, Hjulmand, Gonzalez – Strefezza, Ceesay, Francesco
Lazio
With 30 points from 15 games in Serie A, Lazio is currently sitting in the fourth place in the standings. However, a few other teams are also at the same number of points or close, so Lazio will have an exciting fight for a place in the Champions LEague. In the last six games, the team has three wins, one draw, and two losses.
Just like Lecce, Lazio also has no injuries nor suspension to worry about ahead of their next game.
Lazio Predicted Lineup:
Provedel – Lazzari, Casale, Romagnoli, Marusic – Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi – Vecino – Anderson, Immobile, Zaccagni
Starting Lineups
You will be able to see the starting lineups once they are announced, around one hour prior to kickoff.
Lecce
Lazio
Player to Watch: Ciro Immobile
Although Lazio's captain and the experienced striker missed a few matches this season in Serie A, he is still the team's top goalscorer with six goals in eleven appearances. On top of that, Immobile also added a couple of assists to his tally, so it's pretty clear how crucial he is for Lazio and their good results so far.
Of course, there are a few other names that could be mentioned in this section, but given the fact that Immobile missed four of Lazio's six games in the league with injuries, he will be looking for a chance to get back into form with a bang.
