Lecce 1-0 Cagliari

Current streaks

Recent form

Lecce

Lecce's recent form has been concerning, with the team currently sitting at the bottom of the Serie A table after two matches. The club is experiencing a difficult run, losing five of their last six games across all competitions, including a streak of four consecutive losses. Their defensive struggles are particularly notable, having conceded 14 goals in the last six matches, with an average of 2.33 goals conceded per game. The 4-0 defeat against Atalanta stands out as a particularly high-scoring game. Lecce's attacking output has been modest, scoring only once per game on average. With 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 67% of the games, Lecce's matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, albeit often not in their favor. The team's inability to keep clean sheets in any of these games further highlights their defensive vulnerabilities.

Cagliari

Cagliari's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with two wins, three draws, and one loss in their last six matches across various competitions. The team has been relatively consistent in finding the back of the net, scoring 9 goals in 6 games for an average of 1.5 goals per game. Defensively, they've been fairly solid, conceding 7 goals (1.17 per game) and keeping two clean sheets. Their most recent matches in Serie A have both ended in draws, suggesting they're struggling to secure victories in league play. The highest-scoring game in this period was their 3-1 win against Carrarese in the Coppa Italia, which also marks their last victory. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 67% of these matches, indicating that Cagliari's games tend to be competitive affairs with goals at both ends.

Recent home/away form

Lecce

Lecce's recent home form has been concerning, with the team experiencing a challenging run of three consecutive losses in their last three competitive matches at their home ground. The most notable result was a heavy 4-0 defeat to Atalanta in their latest Serie A fixture, which stands out as a particularly high-scoring game. Their defensive record at home has been particularly worrying, conceding 8 goals in their last three competitive matches while failing to score in two of those games. The team's only recent home victory came in a Coppa Italia match against lower-division Mantova. Lecce's struggles are further emphasized by their current 20th position in the league, having failed to secure any points from their first two Serie A games of the season. Their overall goal difference of -8 across the last six games highlights the significant challenges they face both in attack and defense on their home turf.

Cagliari

Cagliari's recent away form shows a mixed bag of results, with a concerning trend of conceding goals. The team has struggled defensively, allowing 13 goals in their last 6 away games, averaging 2.17 goals conceded per game. Their most notable defeat came against AC Milan in a high-scoring 5-1 loss, highlighting their vulnerability on the road. Despite these defensive issues, Cagliari managed to secure a convincing 2-0 win against Sassuolo and earned draws against strong opponents like Inter Milan and Modena. The team's goal-scoring ability remains consistent, averaging 1.17 goals per game, but they've only kept one clean sheet in this stretch. Interestingly, 67% of their away games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency for action-packed matches when Cagliari plays on the road.
