Lecce, Recent FormLecce will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 away win against Monza. They achieved 26% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Monza's tally of 5 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 5 and seen valuable points lost. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded at least one goal in 16 of their 18 games at Stadio Via del Mare this season.
It's been a disappointing spell of home league form lately, having managed to rack up just 1 victory and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches. Their performance in the league at Stadio Via del Mare this season has been disappoinitng to date, winning just 3 of 18 league games.
Bologna, Recent FormBologna will have been reasonably pleased with their 2-2 draw against Napoli, not least because of the valuable point gained. They came away from that fixture with a 53% share of the possession and clocked up 18 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Napoli, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 8 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Thiago Motta will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 8 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but playing away from home, they have conceded a goal in 17 of their 18 games this season.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
On an individual basis, Riccardo Orsolini is giving Bologna's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 3 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Bologna that came out on top with a 2-0 win.
The last 3 matches between Lecce and Rossoblu show that Lecce have let in at least one goal on each occasion. Playing away from home, Bologna have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 league games against Lecce.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Bologna has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Lecce in 4 games.
There is only really one injury concern for the Lecce manager Marco Baroni ahead of this clash, with Kastriot Dermaku (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Baroni a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Roberto Soriano (Ligament) and Adama Soumaoro (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Thiago Motta will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
