Lecce – Bologna

Lecce host a struggling Bologna side in what promises to be a crucial clash for both clubs. Sitting twelfth with six points from two wins and two defeats, Lecce have scored five but conceded seven, highlighting a leaky defence that will need to tighten up against a team desperate for points. Bologna, languishing in sixteenth place with just a single point from a draw and three losses, have managed only two goals while conceding five, underscoring the urgency of turning their fortunes around. The match offers Lecce a chance to climb back into the top half of the table, whereas Bologna will be looking to snap their poor run and avoid slipping further towards the relegation zone. Both sides enter the game with contrasting recent form, setting the stage for a potentially decisive encounter.
