Lecce vs Bologna Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 02/12/2023, 22:24  by Daniel Ngulu in Serie A Predictions

Lecce will go in search of a rare win when they host Bologna in their next Serie A match. The hosts come into the game placed 13th, five points above the drop zone while Bologna are fifth. The danger of slipping down into the relegation region exists for Lecce and they will be going for three points at home. Two straight draws coming to this game represents some improvement but they need more. The 2-2 draw with Verona last time marked a ninth straight outing without a win for Lecce. They had also drawn 2-2 with Milan earlier. In four straight games now, Lecce have conceded two or more goals. In their last nine matches, they have five losses. However, they only failed to score in three of their last 10 games. Their last league win came in September, 1-0 at home to Genoa.

Bologna are not only coming into this game with good form, they’ve also dominated matches against Lecce. In their last five meetings, Bologna are unbeaten, and they won each of the last four. Heading into this game, Bologna beat Torino 2-0 courtesy of Giovanni Fabbian and Joshua Zirkzee’s second half goals. That was their third win in four matches and they have only lost once in 13 matches. A win here could see Bologna rise into the top five. With their defensive solidity and recently found attacking fluidity they’ll be confident going into this game. While they have just 15 goals in 13 matches in the league, Bologna hold the third best defence.
