Lecce and Juventus meet often enough that they should know each other well. In the last six meetings Juventus have never lost, and they recently came away with a 0-1 win at Lecce's home last May. But this time Juventus do not arrive in the same solid shape, because in their last five league and cup matches they have picked up only one win. Lecce themselves are not much better either. This season they have already lost four of seven matches, scoring nine goals but conceding twelve. But in their latest home game they thrashed 3-0, a match where the defence held firm and the attack ran at full tilt. Juventus, meanwhile, have scored the same nine goals but conceded only eight. Most recently they went down 0-3 away in Serie A, and before that they had just drawn 2-2 in the Europa League. A defence that used to be tight is starting to leak. This game is likely to play out with Lecce sitting back and waiting to counter, because Juventus clearly dominate possession based on their average over the last ten matches. But dominating the ball does not mean it is easy to break down the defence, especially when Lecce are playing at home and have just kept a clean sheet in their latest match. The game should be close and decided by details rather than a thrashing. Looking at the recent pattern of play, Juventus are still the team that creates more chances, but Lecce are the team coming home with confidence from their previous match, and that makes it unlikely this game ends in a lopsided scoreline.
