Juventus vs Lecce Prediction and Betting Tips | May 3rd 2023
Juventus will host Lecce at the Allianz Stadium on Wednesday in another round of Serie A football.
The home side have had a largely turbulent campaign but remain on the hunt for Champions League football next season. They played out a 1-1 draw against Bologna last time out, falling behind in the opening 10 minutes of the game before Arkadiusz Milik scored a leveler on the hour mark after initially squandering a penalty kick.
Juventus have picked up 60 points from 32 games this season and sit third in Serie A. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways when they play on Wednesday.
Lecce have had their struggles this season and currently find themselves deep in the bottom half of the table, although they remain hopeful of survival. They returned to winning ways in the league last week, beating Udinese 1-0 at the Via del Mare via a second-half penalty from Gabriel Strefezza.
