Lecce vs Udinese Prediction and Betting Tips | February 21st 2025
Lecce will host Udinese at the Via del Mare on Friday in another round of the 2024-25 Serie A campaign. The home side have had their struggles in the league this season but remain hopeful of avoiding the drop as they sit 15th in the table with 25 points from 25 games.
They locked horns with Monza in their last match, playing out a goalless draw against the last-placed Biancorossi and will be gutted not to have come away with maximum points after an overall bright performance on the road.
Udinese endured a slow start to the year but seem to have found their feet in recent matches as they continue their push for a first top-half league finish since the 2012-13 campaign. They beat Empoli 3-0 last time out, with former Ajax midfielder Jurgen Ekkelenkamp scoring a brace before Florian Thauvin headed home a late goal to seal the points for the Udine outfit.
The visitors sit mid-table in 10th place with 33 points and will be looking to continue their positive run of form this weekend.

Lecce are on a run of consecutive draws and have won just one of their last five matches. They are winless in their last four matches at the Via del Mare and could struggle here.
