Pisa (home)
- Pisa have scored eight goals in 17 home Serie A games.
- Pisa have lost their last two home games, while Lecce have drawn one and lost two of their last three away matches.
- A run of five consecutive defeats, including losses to Roma, Genoa and Parma Calcio, means Pisa are coming into the match with little confidence.
- Hiljemark took over in February 2026 and has maintained a pragmatic style that has seen the club remain solid at the back but make few inroads going forward.
- Pisa’s 3-4-2-1 style is more compact and based around structure and numerical superiority on the flanks.
Lecce (away)
- Lecce have scored 10 goals in 17 away Serie A matches.
- Lecce’s more proactive approach and slightly better overall quality should earn the Giallorossi a victory in Pisa on Friday as the Serie A relegation strugglers face off.
- 17th-placed Lecce have 29 points from 34 games, 11 more than Pisa, who are propping up the rest of Serie A with 18 points on the board.
- Lecce’s system under Eusebio Di Francesco, who took over in June 2025, is much more proactive, with the 4-3-3 set-up focusing on wide play, occupying the half-spaces and quickly getting the ball into midfield.
- Lecce’s away form has been mediocre, notching up just three wins and 10 goals in 17 Serie A away matches.
