On Monday night, Fiorentina will take on Lecce in an Italian Serie A encounter, aiming to distance themselves from relegation threats. Despite being eliminated from the UEFA Europa Conference League, Fiorentina remains unbeaten in most recent Serie A matches. Lecce, currently 18th in the table, struggles with six losses in their last seven matches, posing a risk of relegation. Fiorentina, contrastingly, has a strong track record away and is expected to dominate against a faltering Lecce, despite Lecce's attempts to impress at home.
Fiorentina will look to maintain their push away from danger when they travel to Lecce for a Monday night Italian Serie A fixture.
La Viola are in escape mode at the moment and will be feeling confident heading into this clash. They should be getting the better of the hosts, who are struggling to find their best form.
Lecce News
Lecce are currently in the middle of the relegation scrap, sitting 18th in the table. However, Eusebio Di Francesco’s team are not down and out yet as they are only in the bottom three due to an inferior goal difference.
While there is a chance for survival, the problem for Lecce is that their recent form offers little hope. They have lost six of their last seven Serie A matches and were beaten 2-0 at Bologna in their previous fixture.
Lecce often attempt to put on a show in front of their fans, but their recent home form has been erratic at best. They have picked up four wins and suffered as many defeats in their last 10 Serie A matches at Stadio Via del Mare.
Fiorentina News
Fiorentina come into this clash off the back of a disappointing exit from the UEFA Europa Conference League after losing 4-2 on aggregate to Crystal Palace. They claimed a 2-1 home victory in Thursday's second leg, but the damage was already done with the 3-0 defeat in the first meeting.
La Viola’s overall form has been solid lately, and they are unbeaten in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions, earning a 1-0 win over Lazio last time out in Serie A. Paolo Vanoli’s team have also done some good work on their travels, winning five of their last seven away matches across all competitions.
Fiorentina often make fast starts and have scored first in three of their last four Serie A away matches. They have also scored at least one second-half goal in five of their last eight away matches across all competitions.
Head to Head
Fiorentina have eight wins while Lecce have picked up six victories, with five draws in the last 19 matches. The hosts claimed a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture back in November, while La Viola are unbeaten in four of the last five trips to the Stadio Via del Mare, winning 6-0 in the most recent visit in 2024.
Verdict
Lecce v Fiorentina
Fiorentina’s recent form means they will be full of confidence here, and having scored first in three of their last four Serie A away matches, a repeat could be considered. The visitors have also scored at least one second-half goal in five of their last eight away matches and could be set for a similar pattern.
Lecce are in poor form at the moment, while Fiorentina have looked solid in recent weeks. La Viola are unbeaten in their last six visits to the Stadio Via del Mare, and given the result in the most recent trip, they should have the upper hand on Monday.
