Lecce vs Atalanta Predictions

Atalanta possesses a clear edge in the league table and they should be backed to defeat an out-of-form Lecce at Stadio Via del Mare on Monday.

Atalanta are 11 places above Lecce in the table, with the hosts 18th having won seven and lost 17 of their 30 games this season. Atalanta, who are seventh, have 13 wins, 11 draws and six defeats.

Lecce could not break their losing run last time out, losing 1-0 away to Roma two weeks ago. They didn’t see much of the ball with only 32.9% possession, and the result was no surprise, with Roma priced at 4/9 to win the game.

The hosts have struggled to find the back of the net at home this season, with just 11 goals in 15 home games – an average of 0.73 goals per game.

Atalanta are in better form than Lecce. They have lost just one of their last ten Serie A matches, while Lecce have sustained two successive reverses and four of their last five games in the league have ended in defeat.

The hosts look vulnerable at the back. Lecce have failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last nine home games in the league.

A 1-0 away win for Atalanta looks a decent correct-score bet. Lecce have been beaten by a single goal in their last two Serie A matches and Atalanta were 1-0 winners against Verona in their last game.
