On Friday night, Lecce and Genoa go head-to-head at the Stadio Comunale Via del Mare as the home team looks to extend their unbeaten run in Serie A this season.
Lecce
The home team have made a highly promising start to the new Serie A campaign, having mounted a four-game unbeaten run in the early weeks of the league campaign in Italy. Last time out, Roberta D’Aversa’s team drew 1-1 with Monza.
The game ended a prolific run of form in front of goal for Lecce in the Italian top-flight, as they had scored at least two goals in each of their opening three league matches.
Lecce have won both their home game games in the Italian top-flight this season against Lazio and Salernitana. They have now also scored at least two goals in their previous three home matches in Serie A.
Genoa
The visitors have made a mixed start to life in the Italian top-flight this season. However, a record of just one win in their opening four Serie A games is poor.
Their poor recent record in the Italian top-flight hasn’t just started this season, though, as Genoa have now won just one of their previous six league matches, having suffered four defeats.
The Rossoblu have struggled defensively in their most recent outings in the Italian top flight, as they have kept just one clean sheet in their last eight matches in Serie A.
Genoa have also been poor travellers of late in the Italian top-flight, as they have won just one of their previous 19 away games in Serie A, having lost five of their last six matches away from home.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts Lecce will continue their promising run of form in Serie A by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
