ROM VS LCE Dream11 Prediction, Live Score & AS Roma vs US Lecce Football Match Dream Team: Serie A 2019/20

Roma faces Lecce in Sunday’s Serie A clash. Can the Giallorossi return to form in Serie A?

Roma were able to put their poor form behind them in midweek, as they secured a 1-0 victory over Gent in the Europa League. That success has boosted morale for the hosts, but they need to claim some league points after slipping six points shy of the top four.

Roma won 1-0 in the reverse fixture against Lecce last September: in the whole 2018/19 campaign, they failed to do a league double whilst not conceding against any opponent. Will they finally end that wait this weekend, or can Lecce strike in the capital?

Roma

If the hosts are serious about their potential return to the Champions League next term, then they need to see off a side who are fighting against the drop. Lecce have been fighting against the odds in the top flight, but their status as a top-flight newcomer suggests they will struggle in this one.

Roma have won 12 of their last 13 Serie A home games against a promoted side (D1); their last such defeat at the Olimpico was back in May 2015 (v Parma). That good record extends to their leading man in attack, as Roma’s Edin Dzeko, who scored in the reverse meeting with Lecce (his only appearance against them), has found the net in 58% of his Serie A matches against a promoted team (14/24, 19 goals in total).

Lecce

After having lost their first home meeting against Lecce in April 1986, Roma have gone unbeaten in each of their following 14 (W12 D2), including four victories in the last four. We fully expect the hosts to claim another victory, especially as they meet a Lecce side who have been beaten in all of their visits to the curent top seven.

However, the visitors have averaged over a goal per game on their travels this season. Lecce have scored in 71% of their Serie A matches, while they’ve won their last three on the bounce. We expect Lecce to cause problems for a Roma side who have seen both teams score in 75% of their home games. We’re also backing a 3-1 loss for a Lecce side who have lost by at least two goals in each of their away defeats so far.
