Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Serie A match.
Lecce are locked in a tense fight to avoid relegation from Serie A. The team are currently 17th in the standings, just two points above the relegation zone. With six matches remaining, it's far too early for any sense of security — the situation remains highly volatile.
Lecce
Over their last five outings, Lecce have collected only one point. However, their recent fixtures have come against formidable opposition: Juventus (1:2), AS Roma (0:1), AC Milan (2:3), and Genoa (1:2). A key takeaway is their ability to consistently find the back of the net. Their main attacking threat has been forward Nikola Krstović, who has scored 10 goals this season. A new attacking partnership has also begun to take shape, with captain Federico Baschirotto scoring in consecutive matches, both assisted by Thórir Helgason.
Como
Como’s management can be pleased with how the squad have performed in their first Serie A campaign. Currently sitting 13th in the standings, more importantly, they have been playing an attractive brand of attacking football. The team rank among the top 10 highest-scoring sides in Serie A with 40 goals, and have scored in nine consecutive matches.
Lecce vs Como Prediction
Both sides have been involved in high-scoring games recently. Four of Lecce’s last five matches have produced at least two goals. For Como, the trend is even more pronounced — 13 of their last 14 games have seen the same outcome. With both teams favouring attacking play, another goal-filled contest looks likely.
