Empoli vs Lecce – Preview, and Prediction
Empoli vs Lecce – On Monday night, Lecce will take on Empoli at Stadio Carlo Castellani in Matchday No. 15, hoping to snap a ten-game losing streak.
In recent weeks, Lecce has drawn three straight, signaling improvement. Substitute Roberto Piccoli netted the last penalty in the tenth minute of stoppage time against Bologna.
The players will be happier in the locker room following their draw against Bologna, especially since Lecce had previously held AC Milan scoreless at the start of the run of draws.
The visitors are currently five points ahead of Empoli in 17th position in the Serie A standings, in 13th place.
In their away match against Genoa last weekend, Empoli also played to a 1-1 draw, with Matteo Cancellieri’s first goal of the year giving them a crucial point.
With just nine goals scored in 14 games this season, Aurelio Andreazzoli’s team continues to have the worst scoring record in the league.
In addition, Empoli has a terrible home record this season, having won one, drawn one, and lost five of their seven Serie A games.
