Lecce vs Roma Preview & Tips - Capital club too strong for struggling hosts
- Roma aiming to continue their exceptional form in Serie A.
- Lecce have struggled, winless in their last six matches.
- Roma’s defense has been key to recent success, with five clean sheets.
Lecce vs Roma
Roma continue their resurgence under Claudio Ranieri and travel to Lecce for an Italian Serie A fixture on Saturday.
The capital club have arguably been the most in-form team in 2025 and are looking almost unstoppable at the moment. They should have the upper hand over the hosts, who appeared to be on a downward spiral prior to the international break.
Lecce Form
The international break probably came at the right time for Lecce, who would have been desperate to stop the downward spiral. Marco Giampaolo's men are winless in their last six Serie A matches, losing the last four fixtures in that run.
That poor run has brought a fast slide down the table as Lecce are now 16th, just three points above the relegation zone. They suffered a 2-1 defeat at Genoa in their previous Serie A fixture, falling just short of a fightback after going two goals down at the break.
Things are just as bad at home for Lecce, who are winless in eight of their last nine Serie A matches at the Stadio Ettore Giadiniero. They often struggle for goals in front of their fans and have failed to score in four of the last five matches in that run.
Roma Form
Roma had some heartbreak prior to the international break as they crashed out of the Europa League after a 4-3 aggregate defeat to Athletic Bilbao. They had claimed a 2-1 home victory in the first meeting but fell 3-2 in the second leg in Spain.
While Ranieri will be disappointed to be out of Europe, Roma now have a chance to fully focus on domestic matters and their push to return to the continent. They are just two points off the top six and claimed a 1-0 victory over Cagliari in their previous fixture to take their record to eight wins in the last nine Serie A matches.
Roma have built their recent form on a solid defence that has kept clean sheets in five of the last six Serie A matches, three of which have come in the last three away matches. They also have a knack for scoring first and have grabbed the opening goal in five of their last six League matches.
Head to Head
Roma have lost only once in this fixture, claiming 22 wins and seven draws in 30 previous matches against Lecce. The visitors have won five of the last seven meetings, and claimed a 4-1 victory in the reverse fixture back in December 2024.
Verdict
Roma have won eight of their last nine Serie A matches and are showing no signs of slowing down. They have also won five of the last seven matches against Lecce and should be too strong for the hosts, who have lost their last four fixtures.
The Capital club have scored the opening goal in five of their last six Serie A matches and have won to nil in the last three away fixtures in the league. This clash is likely to follow a similar pattern.
