Match preview

The latest round of fixtures in Italy’s top-flight is set to come to a close at the Stadio Via del mare on Monday, October 17th.

The clash in question will see a Lecce outfit hovering precariously above the drop zone play host to a Fiorentina side in the midst of their own disappointing campaign to date.

Starting with the former, Lecce have endured a tough time of things since securing their return to Serie A earlier this year.

All told, across nine outings to date, Marco Baroni has guided the club to just a solitary victory, to go along with four draws, and four defeats.

That is not to say, though, that the Lupi have proven a soft touch.

Prior to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Jose Mourinho’s Roma last time out, Monday’s hosts had slipped to just a solitary defeat in six.

Gabriel Strefezza, who bagged Lecce’s only goal against Roma, is also worth taking a punt on when it comes to potential goalscorers on Monday night, fresh off finding the net in four of his last five appearances.

Turning attentions towards Fiorentina, the Viola, as alluded to above, have flattered to deceive thus far in 2022/23.

After booking a spot in Europe last time out owing to a commendable 7th-placed finish in Serie A, Vincenzo Italiano’s troops have since failed to kick on, en route to a paltry nine points from nine outings.

Their most recent outing, last weekend, meanwhile, saw alarm bells truly start to sound across Florence, as Lazio emerged from the Stadio Artemio Franchi with all three points courtesy of a 4-0 rout.

This marked Fiorentina’s 3rd defeat in four on the domestic front, though they have fared considerably better on the continent of late, making short work of Scottish outfit Hearts on a pair of occasions over the course of the last couple of weeks.

We at 101, in turn, predict a draw as the most likely final scoreline come the final whistle at the Via del mare on Monday night.
