Rivals with different styles
This Monday's match between Lecce and AS Roma will feature two similar sets of Giallorossi playing two very different styles. The hosts are led by Eusebio Di Francesco and will line up in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 formation that plays high lines, overloads the wide areas and transitions quickly to attack in numbers.
The visitors are under the guidance of Gian Piero Gasperini and will deploy a 3-4-2-1 that includes man-oriented pressing, wing-back thrust and fast vertical counter attacks. The styles should complement each other and we could see a frantic, transition-heavy match with Roma looking to exploit the half-spaces and Lecce trying to get in behind the wing-backs.
Stalemate on the cards?
The Giallorossi have had a mixed bag of results in the last 5 games, going 2-1-2, but they will be on a high following their 0-2 away win at Venezia yesterday afternoon. Olaf Gorter has been their most prolific scorer in Serie A 2026/2027 with 1 goal in 1 game, but Danilo Veiga has added a bit of creativity with 1 assist and Nikola Stulic has 2 of their recent goals, so he looks the most likely finisher here.
Roma have won the last 2 meetings between the clubs and Lecce haven't beaten them in 3 previous attempts at this venue, so the visitors have the superior head-to-head record. AS Roma come into this game as the clear favourites at 69/100, with Lecce at 41/10 and the draw at 51/20, which looks a bit low for the hosts, who have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 2 of their 5 home games this season.
Dybala to deliver a narrow away win
Lecce have scored 8 goals in their 5 home matches, an average of 1.60 per game, so the short odds on this contest and the low goal line make us lean towards a cagey affair with the Under 2.5 goals selection at 13/20 and Both Teams To Score - No at 7/10.
A home win is possible because Lecce are in decent form at 6-1-3 overall in the last 10, but Roma are in better shape at 6-2-2 across their 10. We're going to side with the Giallorossi, who also have a far superior away record this season, to nick this game and take the points.
Paulo Dybala is Roma's danger man and we're banking on him to score on Monday. The Argentine has 4 goals in their current 5-game run, which has seen the Giallorossi net 10, so there should be chances for him to get on the scoresheet again.
