- Lecce are unbeaten in two of their last three Serie A 2026/2027 matches, beating Venezia 2-0 away.
- Monza have not won away from home in Serie A 2026/2027 after two attempts, taking a 1-0 Coppa Italia win at Torino and a 1-1 Serie A draw at Parma.
Lecce have not lost two of their last 3 games against Monza
Lecce are a solid wager to extend their unbeaten record against Serie A 2026/2027 SSD Monza 1912 this Sunday, but we've taken the slightly safer option of insuring our stake with a double chance wager on the hosts.
I Giallorossi have a handy advantage over their opponents in that they have gone unbeaten in their two previous meetings with I Biancorossi, including a 0-0 draw in Serie A 2024/2025 and one other stalemate in their three meetings dating back to 2022.
The hosts are available at 61/50 here to justify that status with a win against Monza, who are 23/10 for an away win. We think Lecce can take the win, but the draw is available at 11/5 for anyone wanting to be a bit braver.
Monza must find their away rhythm
Lecce have made a solid start to the Serie A 2026/2027 campaign, winning one and drawing the other of their two matches. However, the 2-0 win at Venezia was their most impressive result and Eusebio Di Francesco's men have had a mixed record at home this season, taking no wins from 1 game and conceding four.
Monza have played 3 and won none, following up a superb 1-0 win away at Torino in the Coppa Italia with a 1-1 draw at Parma. Ivan Juric has his men pressing high and hard from a 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-3 shape, bringing intensity and directness to their play.
Lecce will look to hold their structure from a compact 4-3-3 base, which should lead to a fascinating chess match between the two backlines. Di Francesco's side have the width to create problems in the wide areas, but must also keep an eye on Monza's wingbacks who will be pushing high to pressure Lecce's full-backs.
Varela can be a real threat on Sunday
Danilo Veiga has brought some creativity to this team in his two Serie A 2026/2027 appearances so far, providing 1 assist, but Olaf Gorter has been the main threat for I Giallorossi with 1 goal in 2 matches.
Monza have found their threat in Gustavo Varela, who is their Serie A 2026/2027 top scorer with 2 goals in 2 matches. The forward has also scored 3 in his last 5 appearances for the club in a run which has seen them net seven times.
We're taking the under 2.5 goals option at 13/20 because it suits our match plan best here, but we're also going both teams to score NO at 83/100 in case we see a very cagey affair. A narrow home win for Lecce looks the most likely result, but we wouldn't put anyone off taking the insurance policy of the double chance.
