Correct score prediction: Lecce 1-2 Parma
Although Lecce managed to beat Cagliari a few weeks ago, they have scored just once in four Serie A games this season, while conceding six times. Considering Lecce have lost back-to-back encounters with Parma, we are backing a narrow victory for the visiting team.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Lecce are clear favourites
- HOME:6/5 (2.20) – 45.5%
- DRAW:12/5 (3.40) – 29.4%

*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Lecce have improved their fortunes over the course of their Serie A campaign. After losing their first two league games, they have accumulated four points from a possible six in their last two matches. Interestingly, while Luca Gotti’s men scored just once in their last five matches, they have not conceded in their last two games.
With that in mind, Lecce are the expected winners at 6/5 (2.20). Teams with these odds generally have a 45.5% probability of winning.
