Current streaks

Recent form

Venezia

Venezia find themselves in a precarious position, languishing at the bottom of Serie A with a meagre 8 points from 12 games. Their recent form has been particularly poor, with four losses in their last six matches, including a current run of two consecutive defeats. The team's defensive frailties are glaringly evident, having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven outings and conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game. Despite their struggles, Venezia have shown some attacking promise, scoring in five of their last six matches and participating in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. The 3-2 victory against Udinese stands out as a rare bright spot, demonstrating their potential for exciting, goal-laden encounters amidst an otherwise challenging period.

Lecce

Lecce are currently experiencing a challenging period in Serie A, finding themselves in 18th position with just 9 points from 12 games. Their recent form has been particularly poor, with only one win in their last six matches. The team have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring a mere 2 goals in this period, averaging a paltry 0.33 goals per game. Defensively, they've also been vulnerable, conceding 10 goals, including a heavy 6-0 defeat to Fiorentina which stands out as a particularly high-scoring game. Lecce have endured a run of three consecutive losses prior to their most recent draw with Empoli, indicating a struggle for consistency. The team's tendency towards low-scoring affairs is evident, with 83% of their last six matches featuring under 2.5 goals. Despite these challenges, Lecce did manage to keep one clean sheet in their 1-0 victory over Hellas Verona, offering a glimmer of hope amidst their difficult run.

Recent home/away form

Venezia

Venezia have struggled for consistency in their recent home matches, alternating between wins and losses in their last five Serie A fixtures at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo. Their home form has been a microcosm of their overall league performance, with the team currently languishing in 20th position. Whilst they have managed to score in four of their last six home games, their defensive frailties have been evident, keeping just one clean sheet during this period. The most notable match was their 3-2 victory over Udinese, which bucked the trend of low-scoring affairs, as 67% of their recent home games have seen under 2.5 goals. Despite their struggles, Venezia have shown they can be competitive at home, with both teams scoring in half of these matches and their goals per game average of 1.17 offering some hope for improvement.

Lecce

Lecce's away form has been abysmal, with the team currently enduring a five-match losing streak on the road. In their last six away fixtures, they have managed just one point from a goalless draw against Torino, whilst suffering defeats in the other five matches. Alarmingly, Lecce have failed to score in any of these six away games, highlighting a severe attacking deficiency. Their defensive record is only marginally better, having conceded eight goals during this period, with their heaviest defeat coming in a 3-0 loss to AC Milan. The team have kept just one clean sheet away from home, in their draw with Torino. Lecce's struggles are further emphasised by the fact that 83% of their away matches have seen fewer than 2.5 goals, indicating a lack of excitement and offensive threat in their games. This poor run of form has contributed significantly to their current 18th position in the league, leaving them firmly in the relegation battle.
