Lecce vs Sampdoria – Lecce will be seeking to improve on their previous performance here after losing to SSC Napoli in the Serie A last time out by a score of 1-2.
Lecce had 31% of the game’s possession and made 11 efforts at goal, scoring on three of them. Federico Di Francesco (52′) and Antonino Gallo (64′ Own Goal) scored the goals for Lecce.
Napoli, on the other hand, had 9 shots on goal, with 3 of them being on goal. SSC Napoli scored in the eighteenth minute through Giovanni Di Lorenzo.
Recent times have seen far too few instances of Lecce displaying defensive toughness. In fact, Lecce’s defense has been breached in 6 of their last 6 games, resulting in 9 goals being scored.
Of course, that pattern won’t necessarily continue into this game. Lecce had not won at home in the previous six league games coming into this one. Soon, something must alter.
Sampdoria will be looking to redeem themselves after suffering a setback to Cremonese in their previous Serie A match. Sampdoria had 50% of the possession in that game and 8 of their 13 shots on goal were successful.
Sam Lammers (66′) and Mehdi Léris (15′) scored goals for Sampdoria. Four of Cremonese’s 17 goal attempts were successful. For Cremonese, goals were scored by Paolo Ghiglione (35′), Luka Lochoshvili (85′), and Leonardo Sernicola (95′).
According to the numbers, Sampdoria has been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, with 12 goals total from their opponents. Sampdoria can undoubtedly play much better defense.
Sampdoria hasn’t lost to Lecce when they’ve played them away from home in the last six league games, according to an analysis of their prior performances. They have a very strong run of outcomes and have lost their last six league games when playing away from home.

Wladimiro Falcone, Valentin Gendrey, Federico Baschirotto, Samuel Umtiti, Antonino Gallo, Joan González, Morten Hjulmand, Youssef Maleh, F. Di Francesco, Assan Ceesay, and Rémi Oudin should all play in a 4-3-3 formation for Giallorossi in this match.

The following individuals cannot be taken into consideration: Koray Günter (muscular issues), Manuel De Luca (knee issues), Ignacio Pussetto (knee surgery), Andrea Conti (tendon irritation), and Emil Audero (shoulder injury).
We predict that the Blucerchiati will open the match with Nicola Ravaglia, Alessandro Zanoli, Bram Nuytinck, Bruno Amione, Mehdi Léris, Tomas Rincon, Harry Winks, Tommaso Augello, Mickael Cuisance, Filip Djuricic, and Manolo Gabbiadini, and will play in a 3-4-2-1 system.
