Serie A

Odds: 1.75

In 2020, when "Lecce" last climbed into Serie A, the teams exchanged victories. Playing again in February, the teams played a draw of 1-1 in Friuli.

Lecce

Lecce approached the start of the season as one of the main candidates for relegation, but Marco Baroni’s team managed to put this status into question. In the first round, the yellow-reds looked more than solid, scoring a decent number of points and did not allow themselves to fall into the relegation zone. The competitors who fell into a crisis right away certainly helped, but the efforts of the team deserve credit as well. In the second half of the season, “Lecce” slowed down – the lack of a quality reserve affected, there was no one to replace the injured key players. Currently, the yellow-reds are in 16th place in the table with 28 points and a two-point lead over the relegation zone – the team cannot afford to make more mistakes. In the last round, “Lecce” lost 0-2 to “Milan”, extending their winless streak to eight matches.

Udinese

Udinese looked more than solid in the first half of the season – Andrea Sottil’s team played a few bright matches and, in general, was characterized by stability. The Zebras even managed to reach the top four, but could not consolidate their position there – the team fell into a crisis that led to a drop to the lower half of the table and the chance to fight for the Conference League was missed. At the moment, Udinese occupies the ninth place in the table with 42 points in the asset, lagging behind sixth-placed Inter by 12 points – it will be impossible to play off such a handicap. Even to the seventh line, which can only theoretically become European, is lacking by 10 points. In the last round, Udinese defeated Cremonese 3-0, thus ending a series of three games without a win.

Prediction

Our expert pick: Lecce is not having a very successful run of matches lately, but on the crucial stretch of the tournament, the team is definitely capable of improving, it has the potential to do so. Today, the "yellow-reds" have no room for error and they will have to take risks, even a draw will be an unsatisfactory result. "Udinese" is vulnerable on the road, in the last two away games the "zebras" have conceded six goals, and it is unlikely that they will keep a clean sheet against "Lecce". We believe that the guests will not keep a clean sheet. Our prediction is that "Lecce" will score more than one goal individually. In the bookmaker 1xBet such an outcome is offered with a coefficient of 1.75. "Lecce" has lost its form, but in the remaining home games the "yellow-reds" will surely strive to take maximum points, there is no other way to save themselves. The motivation of the hosts will clearly be overwhelming, and they will surely take control of the game from the first minutes. "Udinese" will no longer make it to the European zone, and there is no risk of relegation either motivation can be a key factor and it makes sense to take a risk and give preference to the hosts, who are capable of snatching a minimal victory in a tough battle. Our second bet will be a one-goal victory for "Lecce". Such a bet can be placed at a rate of 3.98. Place a bet with melbet promo code in Nepal a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.75.
