Napoli
- Antonio Conte’s Napoli have hit a purple patch of late and should use their home advantage to extend their Serie A 2025/2026 title push when they face a limited Lecce side on Saturday.
- Napoli have won two straight Serie A 2025/2026 matches and picked up a solid 2-1 victory at home against Torino FC last time out, while Lecce made it three wins and two defeats in their last five with a 2-1 success at home against Cremonese.
Lecce
- But Di Francesco’s men had lost 3-1 at Como the previous away game.
- Napoli have an unbeaten home record in Serie A 2025/2026 (W9, D4) and Lecce have struggled to get going on their travels this term, losing eight of their 13 away trips (W3, D2).
Head-to-Head
- Napoli have won four of their last five games against Lecce (last meeting 1-0) and are unbeaten at home in Serie A 2025/2026 with nine wins and four draws in 13 matches.
- Lecce have conceded an average of 1.38 goals per away game in Serie A 2025/2026 (18 goals conceded in total).
Key Players
- Hoejlund’s finishing and movement are a constant threat, particularly at home where the wing-backs can push forward and the spaces open up, but Lecce don’t have a reliable finisher and won’t pose many problems.
- Banda is their top scorer with just three in 22 in Serie A 2025/2026 and is the best bet to break forward in transition.
Betting Insights
-
They score a lot of goals at home, average 1.77 per match, but they also concede only 0.92.
- 1.77 goals per game at home.
- 0.92 goals conceded per home match.
- Napoli to win and not concede looks a good way to get some value from a game where the odds are stacked against Lecce.
Prediction
Lecce will be desperate to keep this game as tight as possible for as long as possible and hope to nick it on the counter attack, but we fancy Napoli to control the match and win.
