The two most southern clubs in Serie A meet on Friday and most Salernitana vs. Lecce predictions will have the home side continuing their fine form and picking up three more points. Lecce are still without a win so far.
Salernitana vs. Lecce odds
1 – Over 2.5 total goals scored – 10/11
2 – Salernitana to win – 23/20
3 – Boulaye Dia to score at any time – 21/10
4 – Salernitana to score over 1.5 goals – 11/10
5 – Half time/Full time Salernitana/Salernitana – 5/2
Although Juventus will still be complaining about the way the game ended, Salernitana may feel as though they were the ones unlucky not to come away from the Allianz Stadium with all three points on Sunday.
The Granata went 2-0 up before the home side came back into the match and almost won, if it wasn’t for a controversial VAR call. Davide Nicola’s side were definitely good for the lead early on and would have been unlucky not to take anything from the game.
New players are beginning to contribute to a team that looks like it will continue to play the way that saved their Serie A status last season – on the front foot. That could be an attacking style that is too much for Lecce on Friday.
Lecce have not started the new season as well as their hosts this week. They handed Monza their first ever Serie A point on Sunday and had to come from behind to manage that. With no wins from the opening six games, Marco Baroni needs to change something soon.
Only Sampdoria and Monza have scored fewer goals than the Salentini and now they come up against a team that thinks nothing of attacking in waves. This is a tough fixture – but one that Baroni will have earmarked for points.
Keeping tight at the back will be critical for any Lecce success, as they have conceded the first goal in every single game of the campaign so far.

Salernitana team news
Salernitana will be without Federico Fazio after his red card at the end of the Juventus game – but Norbert Gyombér should slot back into the defence to cover. Franck Ribéry is still likely to be unavailable for the hosts though.
Lecce team news
Marco Baroni may be tempted to change around his starting eleven and could have a whole host of defenders to choose from – including Samuel Umtiti on loan from Barcelona. He may want to change his attacking unit as well.
