Lecce – Napoli, 29th day of Serie A, will be played Friday 7nd April at 19pm.

Both teams are looking for a victory that can restore serenity in their respective environments.

Below is our pre-match analysis and the point on the injured.

State of form of Napoli

Napoli occupies the first place in Serie A with 71 points, 16 more than Lazio, second in the standings with 55 points.

During the last 5 games, the Neapolitans collected 3 wins and 2 defeats (against Lazio and against Milan). In these matches, Napoli scored 9 goals and conceded 5 (of which 4 against Milan alone).

Spalletti won't be able to count on a big shot like osimhen and not even about Bereszynski.

State of form of Lecce

Lecce occupies the 16th position in Serie A with 27 points, plus 9 from the relegation zone.

In last 5 matches, Lecce has collected 5 defeats, scoring 0 goals and conceding 7.

Dermaku and Pongracic will not be available to the Lecce coach.

Lecce – Napoli: which is the favorite team

On paper, Napoli are favourites, but history teaches us that the history of a team's last games is not a way to predict the outcome of subsequent games with certainty.

Even Milan, before the match against Napoli, had a defense and attack in a slight crisis, but then they proved to be a really tough opponent for the Neapolitans.

Spalletti will have to field his players making them understand that even matches like this against Lecce are to be considered real finals.

Over the last 5 matches between Napoli and Lecce, there are 3 victories for the Neapolitans, 1 for the Apulians and 1 draw.
