Giallorossi look to bounce back from Bologna loss
Frosinone (6th, 13 points from 7 games) are six places and four points above Lecce (12th, 9 points from 7) in Serie A 2026/2027 and have a slight edge in form coming into Thursday's match with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat from their last 5 in all competitions. The hosts are a bit shorter than we would like at 1.9, given that Lecce have avoided defeat in their last two meetings with the Canarini and the last Serie A 2023/2024 encounter at the Stadio Benito Stirpe was a 1-1 draw, but there's a lot to like about the Giallorossi's price at 3.65 and the draw at 3.7.
The hosts have found their identity under Massimiliano Alvini, playing fast, vertical football based around some aggressive counter-pressing and lightning breaks down the wings. In Serie A 2026/2027, Frosinone have won 3 and lost 1 of their 4 home games, averaging 2.25 goals in the process.
Frosinone can keep it tight with Lecce in the game
Frosinone can play with the handbrake off at home as a 4-2 win over Sassuolo and a 2-1 friendly win over Benevento from their recent results indicates that the goals are there for the taking.
Players and recent form
- Romano Schmid has been a masterful passer for Alvini's men in their recent run, laying on 3 assists in the last 7 goals Frosinone have scored across their last 5 games.
- The visitors have been a little up and down in form of late, winning 2 and losing 3 of their last 5, but a 3-0 away win over Udinese should have them feeling good again ahead of this fixture.
- Both teams to score looks a live alternative at 1.5 and it matches the attacking edge of both sides nicely.
Tactical outlook
Eusebio Di Francesco has his Lecce playing a very different brand of football to Frosinone as they are more organised than their opponents, particularly in their ability to keep the team's shape with their front three pressing or with their midfielders running into the spaces. But Frosinone look the likelier winners at home with the Giallorossi expected to keep it close for as long as they can by controlling the flow of the game and then hoping that they can hurt the Canarini on the counterattack.
