Hello there and welcome to my blog.
Today I bring to you a match preview of Lecce vs Napoli.
Lecce hosts Napoli at their home ground for the first time this season. The last time these two met was in the first leg of the 2022/2023 campaign season which ended in a 1-1 draw.
Lecce's last victory was on February 19 against Atlanta, since then, they have been battling for a win. Their last 5 matches all ended in a loss.
Lecce is currently at the 16 position in the league table and just 8 points from the relegation zone. If they are to maintain this disastrous form, they will surely be pulled into the relegation.
Napoli on the other hand is hoping to take revenge after they were humiliated by Ac Milan at the home grounds of Napoli.
The Napoli team is missing one of their important forward player who played a crucial role at the start of this season and is currently out with a Muscle Injury.
Now Napoli has won 3 of their last 5 games and is hoping to go home with a win in today's game.
They are currently at the top of the league table with just 16 points ahead of Lazio who are currently in the 2nd position with a total of 55 points.
Head to Head

These two sides are meeting for the 7 times in all competitions.
Napoli had won 4 of the 7 meetings and Lecce has won 2 of the 7 meetings and drew 1.
The last time Lecce won against Napoli was in the year 2020 and the last time Napoli won against Lecce was in the year 2019.
Now Lecce are hoping to extend their head-to-head winning numbers to 3 whiles Napoli are hoping to extend theirs to 5
Prediction.
With Napoli's top striker out on an injury, I think this match is going to close in a 1-2 victory for Napoli.
