Lecce vs Roma Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 01/04/2024, 03:43  by Sridhar in Serie A Predictions

Roma will look to stay in the hunt for a top-four finish as they travel to Lecce, who are perilously close to the relegation zone. Stadio Ettore Giardiniero-VVia del Mare will host this match on Monday, with Lecce starting the weekend in 13th with 28 points and Roma fifth with 51 points. Lecce are four points above the bottom-three ahead of this round and are going to spend another matchday in the green zone, irrespective of the result here. There’s some confidence in the home camp after a 1-0 win over Salernitana in the last match before the international break. That came in the first match for Luca Gotti as coach of the side, and they would be keen to double up on that result. That would need Lecce to improve their recent home record, having lost three of their last four Serie A matches at this venue.

Roma defeated Sassuolo 1-0 last time out and are currently occupying the Europa League qualification spot. They are three points behind Bologna, who are in the last Champions League qualification place. The capital side has built up some steam under Daniele De Rossi and has also made it to the quarterfinals of the Europa League. While that forms part of their discussions later in April, Roma will look to continue their recent impressive form in Serie A. They have won seven of their last nine league matches, drawing and losing just once. There’s an uptick in their away form too, as Roma are unbeaten across their last four Serie A road trips, winning three and drawing one.
