This weekend’s Serie A action involves a battle between two teams having low-key starts and these Lecce vs. Salernitanapredictions assess the latest picture for the pair. Lecce are unbeaten but Salernitana are yet to win in league competition.
1 – A draw – 49/20
2 – Lecce under 2.5 total goals – 2/11
3 – Total goals scored over 2.5 – 7/10
4 – Both teams to score – 22/23
5 – A 2-2 draw – 18/1
Both of these teams will be relatively pleased with their respective starts to the new Serie A season, with hosts Lecce picking up four points from their first two league outings and Salernitana drawing two from two.
With the potential for being involved in a relegation battle later on in the campaign, this is not a bad start, and they will be looking to keep up the dual unbeaten streak this weekend.
Despite Lecce’s form being slightly better, there is little to pick between the two teams, and an interesting draw could be on the cards in this contest.
Goals have been a strong feature for both teams in August, with Lecce scoring four in two, at a rate of two league goals scored per 90 minutes, with Salernitana scoring three from three. This hints at a possible change from last season, where goals were an issue for both sides as they battled for top-flight survival in the run-in.
Salernitana scored 48 goals from 38 league matches, at an average of 1.26 per game, with Lecce on 33, as the fifth lowest scorers in the division. That indicates both teams will be capable of getting themselves on the score sheet in this match and it could be one of the most eye-catching clashes on the Serie A schedule over the weekend.
If the game does end in a draw, it will keep them both unbeaten heading into the international break, something that will give the pair something to build on when league action returns in the middle of September.

Lecce (4-3-3): Falcone; Gendrey, Pongracic, Baschirotto, Gallo; Rafia, Ramadani, Gonzalez; Di Francesco, Strefezza, Banda
Salernitana (3-4-3): Ochoa; Lovato, Gyomber, Pirola; Kastanos, Bohinen, Coulibaly, Bradaric; Botheim, Dia, Candreva
A fully fit squad and a solid draw are unlikely to mean too many changes for the home side for this one. But Federico Di Francesco could come into the starting line-up as part of a refreshed attack for the hosts this weekend.
Flavius Daniliuc is the only long-term absentee for Salernitana ahead of this game. Domagoj Bradaric is expected to come into the starting line-up to add more defensive solidity in the full-back area for the visitors on their trip to the Stadio Via del mare.
