Juventus vs Lecce Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 3rd May 2023
Juventus are out to consolidate their place inside the top four of the Serie A table, when stepping up against Lecce for a match this coming Wednesday. Lecce no doubt have a surprise in mind, but a win for Juventus nevertheless seems the likely outcome.
Juventus approach the next Serie A round as number three in the table, having claimed 60 points this season so far. With 32 games behind them, Lecce amassed 31 points, placing them as number 16 before their next fixture.
Lecce are hugely favoured to knock out Juventus from this competition. The latter will obviously put up a fight on Wednesday but an away win still seem the most likely scenario.
Juventus go into their next Serie A match, scoring a humble average of 1.4 per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane 14 times, while conceding ten. That amounts to an average of one per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring three times.
Lecce are currently not the most scoring team in the Serie A, as they only found the back of the net five times in ten matches. This is an average of just 0.5 goals a game in which they conceded 13 times, an average of 1.3 per game. They managed one clean sheet in of these.
The last time the pair played each other, Juventus came out the other side as 0-1 winners and surely won't mind a repeat of that result.
Juventus vs Lecce Prediction
Juventus Form
Juventus only added a single point to their account in their last three games, where they lost 0-1 and 1-0 against SSC Napoli and Inter respectively. At least they managed a 1-1 draw with Bologna. It has been a bit hit-and-miss for Juventus but at least mostly hit, as they put four wins on the board in their previous six Serie A matches. They didn't draw any matches, but lost twice, scoring ten goals while conceding seven.
Lecce Form
In their last three matches, Lecce drew 1-1 with Sampdoria, lost 2-0 against AC Milan and beat Udinese 1-0. Lecce won twice, while also recording zero draws, and four defeats in their last six away matches in the Serie A. The scoreline from these matches says seven goals conceded and four scored.
In current form, it is very difficult to argue against Juventus claiming yet another win. Lecce don't look strong enough right now to push their hosts to dropping points.
Juventus took 41 points from their last 16 encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Serie A table. This amounts to 13 wins after scoring 30 times and conceding seven. Lecce claimed one win and six points in their last ten games against teams from the top six. They scored nine times in these matches, but also conceded 16 goals. Juventus enjoy a record of 18 wins, six draws and eight defeats in the Serie A this season. Lecce have seven wins, ten draws and 15 defeats in the Serie A.
