Lecce vs Parma prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2026-01-10 11:30.
[p]The two lowest-scoring sides in Serie A this season meet as Lecce host Parma with both teams looking to increase their gap to the relegation zone.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]A 2-0 defeat against Roma on Tuesday means that for the second time this season, Lecce have lost back-to-back home league games. Both of their last two defeats at Stadio via del Mare came without scoring, which is symptomatic of a side that have netted just 12 league goals this term. Eusebio Di Francesco’s side start the round four points clear of the relegation zone, and with fixtures against Inter and AC Milan to follow, this feels like a must-win game for the Giallorossi. Lecce could thrive in this environment though, as they’re yet to concede a single goal against sides who join them in the pre-round bottom six this term (W3, D2).[/p]
[p]Parma sit just a point ahead of their hosts here after a 2-0 midweek defeat of their own against league leaders Inter. The Crusaders’ 18 points at this stage matches their tally from last season when they went on to avoid relegation, but boss Carlos Cuesta will know his side need more firepower as they too have netted just 12 times in the league this term. He can take encouragement from his side’s recent returns on the road as Parma have lost just one of their last six away league games (W2, D3) and arrive in Lecce having taken seven of the last nine available points on their travels.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Lecce have won the last two H2Hs, but stretching that sequence to three appears unlikely as their only prior top-flight home victory over Parma came back in 1991 (D6, L6).[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
