Expert analysis Lecce

The home side in the Lecce vs SSC Napoli clash took 20 of their 27 points in Italy’s Serie A table up to the 18th matchday. Marco Baroni’s side reached that mark thanks to a 2-2 home draw with the third-placed AC Milan. However, this was followed by a 0-2 away defeat to the third-bottom Hellas Verona and a 1-2 domestic loss against the 15th-placed Salernitana.

Thereafter, the squad from Apulia gave the impression of a turnaround. Because: Lecce managed away victories against the last-ranked Cremonese (2-0) plus against the sixth-placed Atalanta (2-1) and in between a 1-1 against the fifth-ranked AS Roma. But this series was, in retrospect, a flash in the pan.

The Salentini were defeated in all their last five Serie A fixtures and failed to score a goal. Initially, the Giallorossi lost against the twelfth-placed Sassuolo (0-1), at the fourth-ranked Inter Milan (0-2) and at home against the tenth-placed Torino FC (0-2). Then, before and after the international break, Lecce experienced two 0-1 at the ninth-placed Fiorentina and on Monday at the 14th-ranked Empoli.

Expert analysis SSC Napoli

The visitors slipped on Sunday in the SSC Napoli vs AC Milan clash into a 0-4 home debacle. However, the leaders failed to convert a 61% possession. Moreover, this defeat generally can’t diminish the Serie A results of Luciano Spalletti’s team.

After all, the side from the city at the feet of Vesuvius in their 28 league appearances so far celebrated 23 victories. Ten of these were achieved from the 17th to the 27th round. Here, a 0-1 home defeat against the second-placed Lazio Rome on 3 March constituted the exception. This broke a streak of eight victories.

SSC Napoli in February threaded two 3-0 at the fourth-last Spezia as well as at home against Cremonese and as many 2-0 at Sassuolo as well as at Empoli. Then, Spalletti’s squad went into the international break with a 2-0 home win against Atalanta and a 4-0 at Torino FC. All in all, in all SSC Napoli’s last eight championship matches, never both teams scored. The leaders won six times with a clean sheet.

Head-to-head comparison Lecce – SSC Napoli

The first clash between these opponents in the 2022/2023 Serie A took place on 31 August. This marked the first SSC Napoli vs Lecce match after two and a half years. The clash at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona ended with 1-1.

Our betting prediction and the best odds

The hosts in the Lecce vs SSC Napoli fixture lost exemplarily all their last five championship matches. A reason for this lies in the fact that the Salentini never netted. Conversely, the leaders won ten of their eleven league appearances from the 17th to the 27th round. Here, the team from the city at the feet of Vesuvius lost exclusively to Lazio Roma. The second-placed team inflicted the only goal from early February to mid-March. For this reason, too, we wouldn’t consider the debacle in the top match SSC Napoli vs AC Milan as a yardstick.

Lecce vs SSC Napoli – betting prediction: Both teams to score – No, odds 1.75

Alice is half Austrian and half Italian. That's why she experienced the 1990 World Cup in Italy at first hand. And that awakened her enthusiasm for football. Since she has loved writing since childhood, Alice began to study journalism while still at school. It was very convenient for her that her class took part in a project of a German daily newspaper. She was also allowed to write for the children's pages of an Austrian daily newspaper and to get a taste of the sports department of the same medium. This is how she received her first press accreditations, which was of course anything but a matter of course for the then 18-year-old. Although she was partly advised against it, Alice decided to study journalism and communication sciences. After a few years, she decided to use the exams she had taken as an elective. Nevertheless, she applies the knowledge she has acquired in her further professional life. The same applies to her language skills. In addition to her mother tongues German and Italian, Alice is also proficient in English and Spanish. She also understands French and can use this language in research. During her studies, Alice was involved in an Austrian football club. At the same time, she wrote for a total of three Austrian portals and worked as an Austria correspondent for an Italian-language online medium. This collaboration started during Giovanni Trapattoni's era at Red Bull Salzburg and continued during EURO 2008. This gave her the opportunity to interact with Trapattoni as well as with Italian journalists. From the following year, Alice initially worked with a Swiss portal before discovering sports betting content for herself. On the one hand, this kept her in sports journalism, and on the other, it broadened her horizons. And that both in the context of the sports betting industry and with other sports as well as countries. In the field of sports journalism, she focused in particular on football from around the world, volleyball and beach volleyball. In addition, she naturally wrote several guides, bookmaker profiles, bonus articles and other content for betting enthusiasts. She did this for the same company for about ten years, writing articles in German and Italian. She also built the Italian-language website together with the managing director. Meanwhile, Alice started working with another Austrian football club. Furthermore, she joined the Association Internationale de la Presse Sportive (AIPS) in 2016. This gives her the opportunity to watch teams and athletes on the ground relatively often. Not only sports betting, but also radio In January 2019, the next step in her professional development followed. For: she started creating premium content on the topic of sports betting. In the process, she finally put out feelers to almost all countries and all continents. And this was not least due to the fact that both German and English-speaking users subscribed to her content. Nevertheless, Alice continued to use her knowledge of Italian, among other things. On the one hand, because she regularly exchanges ideas with Italian colleagues, and on the other, because she works with a web radio station. The Corona crisis had a strong impact on the sports world and on interest in sports betting, primarily in the early days. Therefore, a fresh start was necessary and, on balance, Alice found the fields of activity that suited her best. She also writes articles for an agency on almost all disciplines as well as on eSports and content for a German online medium. Alice is half Austrian and half Italian. That's why she experienced the 1990 World Cup in Italy at first hand. And that awakened her enthusiasm for football.
