Lecce vs Bologna — Tips & Analysis

Under 2.5: Neither of these sides can score. Lecce manage less than a goal a game, and Bologna have scored three goals in five league games. That is the whole case for a quiet night in Lecce. Lecce have won five, tied two and lost eight of their last 15 games, and their games bring just over 2 goals in total on average. Only 6 of those last 15 had 3 or more goals, so low totals are normal for them. Bologna are even quieter. They score less than a goal a game, their last five results read tie, loss, tie, loss, loss, and three of their defeats have finished 0-1. Both attacks are short of bodies as well. Holm and Odgaard are out for Bologna with Dovbyk and Mbangula doubtful, and Lecce are without Berisha and Stulic. Add three weeks off for both sides and a careful start looks far more likely than an open one. A 0-1 Bologna win is the honest read, and one goal clears this with room to spare. The risk sits with Lecce at their own ground. They have produced a 3-2 there in this run, so they can turn a tight game into a mess. Bologna also let in more than a goal a game. We still want the quiet game here.
