Udinese - Lecce betting tips and odds

The home team are slightly stronger as far as most online bookies are concerned, but the difference is by no means insurmountable. Both a stalemate and a victory for Lecce are still on the table.

It would be a minor miracle for Lecce to win at Udinese, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.55 price on most online sportsbooks.

Udinese’s previous away game against Empoli was an altogether dull affair as far as the result goes, though they shouldn’t be unhappy with the 0:0 draw. Neither side managed to pull ahead throughout the runtime, but Udinese’s opponents were widely considered the stronger team.

The draw from the away team’s previous Serie A match was hard-won despite the home-field advantage. The odds were mostly against them before kick-off, and things went downhill from there as they fell behind in the first half. They managed to catch up the game’s latter half, though, and walk away with a single point.

The biggest issue the hosts have is a lacklustre backline. They’re currently on a bit of a trend of conceding a lot of goals – over 5 across their 3 previous matches, to be exact.

Lecce’s recent track record shows a very concerning amount of concessions – 6 of them in their previous 3 matches, to be exact. While it’s obvious their defence has a lot of problems, Over markets might be a good option for this match.

Though we can’t say Udinese fared too well so far in the Serie A, they have 1 point separating them from the relegation zone. Winning the match on Monday would be great news for their table position, but the 3 points will not be easy to claim.

Though they’re in the upper part of the Serie A table, Lecce are heading into dire straits on this Monday. Moreover, we’re only at round 9 of this season’s competition. On the bright side, this also means that they have more than enough time to earn the 2 points needed for a Europa qualification, even if they lose this match.

On Monday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.73. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
