Lecce will host Venezia at the Via del Mare on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Serie A campaign. The home side have lost their way in recent weeks and have work to do if they are to avoid the drop. They sit 17th in the league table with 25 points from 30 matches.
They suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Roma in their last match and had looked set to be headed toward a much-needed point in front of their home fans before their opponents snatched all three points in the final 10 minutes of the contest.
Venezia have struggled to adjust to life in the top flight this season and are rapidly running out of time to save their campaign. Like their weekend opponents, the Leoni Alati marked their return to action after the international break with defeat, losing 1-0 to high-flying Bologna.
Trending
The visitors, who remain 19th in the league table, are five points above rock-bottom and five points away from safety. They will be looking to take a step in the right direction this weekend.
