Bologna vs Lecce Prediction

I Rossoblù concluded October with a win on Tuesday, keeping their second clean sheet in three league games, and will look to build on that form. They have suffered just one loss at home in Serie A since August 2023. They have suffered just one loss in this fixture since 2007 and are strong favorites.

Oussama El Azzouzi, Michel Aebischer, Nicolò Cambiaghi, and Martin Erlić remain sidelined with injuries for the hosts. Lewis Ferguson and Charalampos Lykogiannis will face late fitness tests.

The Salentini returned to goalscoring and winning ways after five games on Tuesday and will look to continue that momentum here. They have won just one of their last nine away games in Serie A, failing to score in seven, which is a cause for concern.

There is no injury update for them before the trip to Emilia-Romagna as Kevin Bonifazi, Filip Marchwiński, Luis Hasa, Medon Berisha, and Rareș Burnete are sidelined with injuries.

Considering the Rossoblù's dominance in this fixture and the visitors' poor away record, Bologna are expected to record a win and the odds of a clean sheet are also good.

Prediction: Bologna 2-0 Lecce
