Lecce vs Monza Prediction & Betting Tips (27 April)

Lecce is currently 13th in Serie A and has a significant lead of 7 points over the relegated side. The team based in Puglia is in better shape these days, which has allowed it to distance itself from the red zone. Indeed, Rémi Oudin's teammates have won 3 of their last 5 championship matches, for 1 draw and 1 defeat. After a logical setback suffered in the lair of AC Milan 3-0, they piled up points during the last 2 days against direct competitors for maintenance. Lecce won against Empoli 1-0 and at Sassuolo last weekend 0-3. Comfortably installed in the soft underbelly of the ranking, Monza today occupies 11th place in Serie A.

Never worried by relegation, Matteo Pessina's teammates are also too fair to consider European qualification. They will thus experience a final straight line without much at stake. Little to their advantage since their return from the international break in March, the Lombards have not won any of their last 4 championship matches, 1 draw and 3 defeats. After taking a point at Bologna 0-0, they lost at home to Atalanta last weekend 1-2.

Lecce must do without long-time missing defender Dermaku, usually starting midfielder Kaba and the important Banda and Ramadani, all on the flank. On the other hand, winger Almqvist (2 goals in SA) is available again after serving his suspension. The coach should largely renew his confidence in the elements who won brilliantly last weekend.

We are thinking in particular of winger Dorgu and striker Piccoli (5 goals in SA) who both found the net.
