Lecce aims to extend their unbeaten run to five games as they prepare to take on Udinese this Monday. Having drawn their last two matches against Monza and Cagliari, a draw or better in this next game would ensure their stay in Serie A for another season.
Unfortunately, Lecce will be missing forward Roberto Piccoli, who is out with a suspension due to accumulating too many yellow cards. Additionally, Lameck Banda and Kastriot Dermaku are unavailable because of injuries.
On the other side, Udinese is fighting to escape the relegation zone. Despite their efforts, Lecce’s solid performance at home suggests that the match may likely end in a draw.
Udinese also faces roster challenges with several key players out injured, including Marco Silvestri, Lautaro Giannetti, Florian Thauvin, Vivaldo, and Gerard Deulofeu. There’s also uncertainty around midfielder Sandi Lovric, who may not participate due to his health status.
Historically, games between these two teams have not been high scoring, with less than 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six encounters.
The prediction for Monday’s match is a 0-0 draw.
