Lecce - Juventus team news and expert analysis
The club from Via del Mare once again avoided relegation last season, finishing 17th with 38 points. Their results are looking much the same now, with roughly a point collected per game. It all began with a 0-2 defeat to modest Palermo in the cup. In their latest round, however, they suddenly secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Udinese.
The Turin giants changed their manager again a year ago, but still endured a disappointing campaign: they dropped to sixth place in Serie A and failed to win any trophies in other competitions. They have had to settle for Europa League football, where the Italians thrashed NEC 5-0 and this month came from behind to beat Celta 2-1. They did share the points with Rennes, drawing 2-2. At the same time, there have been plenty of slip-ups in the league as well. In the previous round, they suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat to Lazio.
Ilic and his teammates score 1.29 goals per game but concede 1.71. The Turin side also average 1.29 goals per match, while allowing 1.14.
