Lecce vs Empoli Prediction 13.04.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 13.04.2024
• Kickoff: 14:00 UK / 15:00 CEST
• Venue: Stadio Via del Mare (Lecce)

Lecce quite expectedly lost the previous round game in Milan against the team of the same name, and it is clear that the points that will ensure their survival in Serie A must be sought elsewhere. One such match comes up now. In the course of the season so far, the club from the south of Italy has achieved 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats, which is somewhat average result, but they lost several victories due to quite unfortunate incidents. In the previous 8 matches, Lecce only beat Salernitano and it is clear that they will need much more by the end of the season.

At the moment, Empoli is in a slightly less favorable situation than their rivals because they have won 1 point less so far. They won the previous round against Torino, ending a streak of 4 consecutive defeats. About a month and a half ago, this team was quite safe and at a safe distance from the danger zone, but now the difference compared to Frosinone is only 2 points and compared to Sassuolo 3 points.

Lecce vs Empoli pick: DRAW

This is a very important match for both teams. There are not too many problems with the absent players, so they will oppose each other on the field as strongest as possible. In the first match of the season played in Empoli, the score was 1-1. In 4 out of 6 previous direct duels, a draw was the final outcome. When it comes to such important matches towards the end of the season and both teams are above the line, it often happens that there is a special level of caution.

You shouldn't expect a match with too many goals, that's for sure, and a draw is a very certain option, so it's definitely worth putting a penny on the odds of over 3
