Lecce vs Juventus Betting Tips: Juventus to Win
Despite their statistical dominance and consistent threat to the goal, Lecce once again found themselves without a win in the ongoing campaign, marking the seventh time overall and third time in their last four Serie A matches. They suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat against Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico.
Giallorossi started their 2023-24 domestic season strongly, going undefeated in their first six games in Italy (W4, D2). However, following their initial match against Juventus in September &— which ended in a subdued 0-1 loss &— their form has notably declined.
Indeed, the only positive for Robert D’Aversa’s team in the last 15 premier league games has been a late 2-1 victory over Frosinone in mid-December of the previous year. This highlights the series of unfavourable results that have reduced their lead over the relegation zone to a mere four points, having collected only 21 points from 20 matches.
As they continue their pursuit of the Scudetto, Juventus is in top form heading into Sunday’s match. They confidently defeated Sassuolo with a decisive 3-0 victory on Tuesday night. Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic, who contributed two impressive goals, played a key role in this triumph. This win has kept Juventus’s perfect record in 2024 intact.
The result in Turin during midweek saw La Vecchia Signora not only extend their impressive 17-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, but also achieve their sixth win in a row. Four of these victories were in 2024, with a remarkable 15 goals scored and only two conceded since the start of the new year.
Massimiliano Allegri’s high-flying team, hungry for success and relentless on both ends of the pitch, will strive to translate their dominant form into Sunday’s outing, aiming to leapfrog Inter at the summit of Serie A. Painting a highly plausible scenario, given that the black-and-white brigade has celebrated victory in each of the last four encounters against the Apulian club, a streak that includes a 1-0 triumph earlier in the season.

Lecce team news
While Nicola Sansone remains a doubt due to a calf strain, the trio of Ahmed Touba, Hamza Rafia and Lameck Banda have been invited by their national teams to represent them at the African Cup of Nations and the Asian Cup respectively.
Knowing his team didn’t deserve defeat by Lazio in the Italian capital last Sunday, Lecce boss Roberto D’Aversa could call up the same side that showed the Romans guts and teeth again.

Juventus team news
Enjoying a strong start to the new calendar year, Juventus, a serious Scudetto contender, has no fresh injury concerns, meaning that coach Massimiliano Allegri will field the same side that netted 15 goals in the opposition’s net during the initial four tests of 2024.
Experienced right-back Mattia De Sciglio inches closer to his return, the long-injured Moise Kean could see a change of scenery as early as this winter transfer window — a potential destination might be Spain, specifically Atletico Madrid — while Nicolo Fagioli and Paul Pogba face extended suspensions.
