Preview

Match preview

Udinese welcome Lecce to the Bluenergy Stadium for round seven of the Serie A campaign, with both teams eager to halt recent slides down the table. Udinese currently sit 15th on four points after enduring a testing run of fixtures, while Lecce occupy 13th spot with six points from their opening six encounters.

Udinese have found life difficult on their own ground this season, picking up one point from three home fixtures and scoring just twice. However, their historical record against Lecce offers encouragement, having avoided defeat in five of their past six home meetings against the Salentini.

Lecce travel north having lost four of their last five matches across all competitions, including shutout defeats away to AC Milan and Cagliari. With Lecce averaging just 0.7 goals per away game and Udinese matching that exact scoring rate at home, a closely fought contest with minimal margins appears likely.

Double Chance

Udinese or Draw

68%

Confidence

Udinese have dominated this fixture in front of their home supporters, claiming three wins and two draws from their last six home clashes with Lecce. While Udinese have yet to secure a victory on home soil this term, Lecce have struggled significantly on the road, suffering two defeats in three trips and failing to score in both losses. Head-to-head history also points toward a low-scoring affair, with 70 percent of their last ten meetings finishing with under 2.5 goals. Given Lecce have lost four of their last five games overall, Udinese have a favourable setup to take at least a point from this encounter.
