Lazio - Lecce predictions

Punters who are looking for a safe bet should definitely consider this match. The home win odds of 1.62 bring great value considering the fact that Lazio are indeed firm favourites to defeat Lecce.

From the present standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Lazio and the 7.41 odds given to Lecce to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be an unexpected upset.

Lazio are coming on the back of a decent performance in their previous away game at Inter . Although the game ended in a 2:2 draw, Lazio were trailing behind on half time. In the end, they managed to recover despite the fact top online bookmakers considered them clear underdogs, pricing an away win at 5.27.

Although they don’t always make it look easy, Lecce tend to deliver results in the end. Their previous showdown against Torino saw them secure a narrow 1:0 home win after a rocky first half.

The hosts have had some decent successes lately. In terms of their records, they haven’t let a single Serie A match go by for at least 7 rounds without scoring at least once.

If you’re hoping for an exciting match, Lecce’s recent track record may be a bit disappointing for you. Their previous two home games ended with less than 2 goals on the board.

Lazio already won against Lecce this season, although it was a rather narrow victory. They’ll have the home-field advantage this time, though, which puts them in the position of favourites.

Lecce will have an even more difficult time of this match than what was expected. They will be missing at least a few players due to injury - Nikola Krstović, Joan Gonzàlez Cañellas, Rares Burnete, Balthazar Pierret will all be unable to perform.

And Under 2.5 Goals bet may not be the obvious choice, but that may be exactly what makes it good. The Betway sportsbook is pricing this fixture at 2.00, which offers substantial betting value. It’s not without risks, of course, but it’s statistically an excellent choice.
