Lecce - Bologna predictions

Lecce will likely try to secure a draw at most. They are outclassed by Bologna, plain and simple, and most bookies online agree with this – after all, the betting odds on a home win for this match are 4.14.

Bologna will have to maintain the high level of focus against Lecce. They can’t afford any mistakes and errors if they plan to run away home with three points in the bag.

Lecce will be keen to bounce back from a disappointing result in the last Serie A round. Playing in front of their own fans and with a draw at halftime, they were still unable to leave the stadium with anything in the bag as the game ended in a narrow Cagliari.

Bologna are here on the back of a 2:1 victory against Genoa achieved thanks to a late-game decider. Despite playing at home, the odds of them winning were set at 4.53 with top online bookmakers, so the 3 points are more than welcome.

The first step Lecce need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

Bologna have a record of uneventful away matches. Specifically, their previous 2 games as visitors featured 1 goal or less.

Lecce’s 20th table placement puts them right in the relegation zone. Although they still have a lot of time to earn a better spot, meeting Bologna this Sunday is a major roadblock between them and a moving up.

Although we’re still very early in the season, the Serie A’s leading table positions are already highly contested. Bologna are placed at 11th, which definitely leaves room for improvement. A victory at Lecce would be a great move in the right direction, considering it’s not exactly an easy matchup.

With no injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their full rosters available for an exciting showdown.

Betting on a Draw is likely to be your best option, though it’s a relatively risky wager. It offers decent value with the 3.20 odds, though, which can be found at top online bookmakers such as Pncl.
