Salernitana vs Lecce prediction 2024-03-16
Following a 4-2 loss to Cagliari, Salernitana will look to revive their survival hopes when they take on Lecce at their Stadio Arechi. I Granata are having a season to forget, with the team sitting in the ultimate position in the standings with only 14 points on their account. Given Salernitana’s shaky defence, home win should not be considered. All Jerome Boateng, Niccolo Pierozzi, and Norbert Gyomber are out of contention with injuries.
Meanwhile, the Giallorossi failed to impress in a 1-0 defeat to Verona, but they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways in the Serie A. Lecce are desperate to secure yet another elite division survival and we predict that the relegation-threatened visitors will showcase their worth on the field.
