Torino is set to host Lecce at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino in an upcoming mid-table Serie A encounter scheduled for Friday.

Torino has maintained an undefeated streak since the beginning of 2024, with three draws in their five league matches so far. They recently settled for two consecutive draws, notably a 1-1 draw against Sassuolo in their last outing. Duván Zapata salvaged a point for Torino with an equalizer in the ninth minute after Andrea Pinamonti had put Sassuolo ahead in the fifth minute.

In contrast, Lecce has experienced a dip in form lately, managing just one victory in their last eight league fixtures. Despite securing a thrilling 3-2 home win over Fiorentina earlier this month, they failed to sustain momentum and suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat against Bologna in their recent away fixture.

Head-to-Head and Key Statistics:

Torino holds the advantage in their head-to-head encounters with Lecce, having won 15 out of 31 meetings across all competitions, while Lecce has managed eight victories, with eight matches ending in draws. Torino completed a league double over Lecce in the previous season, winning both fixtures with an aggregate score of 3-0. Moreover, Torino emerged victorious in the reverse fixture earlier this season, securing a 1-0 away triumph.

Lecce has struggled in away matches this Serie A campaign, enduring a winless streak with seven out of their 10 losses occurring on the road. On the other hand, Torino boasts a strong home record, suffering just one defeat at home against league leaders Inter Milan in October. Torino possesses the third-lowest goal-scoring tally in Serie A this season, finding the net 21 times in 23 matches, yet they boast the third-best defensive record, conceding only 20 goals during the same period.

Prediction:

Torino has been in fine form recently, losing only one of their last 10 league fixtures. They remain unbeaten in 2024, securing two victories and three clean sheets in their five league matches. With four wins in their last six home games, accompanied by four clean sheets, Torino enters the match as a strong favorite.

However, Torino will miss the services of Adrien Tameze due to suspension, while captain Ricardo Rodriguez is sidelined with an injury sustained in the previous match against Sassuolo.

Meanwhile, Lecce has struggled, losing four of their last five league matches and failing to score in three of those games. Their away form has been particularly poor, suffering five consecutive defeats and failing to score in four of those matches.

Considering the contrasting form of the two teams and Lecce’s struggles away from home, Torino is expected to secure a comfortable victory, with a clean sheet also likely.
