Empoli take on the visitors Lecce in the round 28 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, April 3rd at Stadio Carlo Castellani (Empoli).
Empoli have been performing poorly lately. After a sensational away victory against Inter at the end of January, Dzane-tti's team has been unable to win in the championship for eight consecutive rounds. In the last four rounds, the team has suffered four defeats: 0-2 to Napoli, 1-2 to Monza, 0-1 to Udinese, and 1-2 to Atalanta. It was only in the match against Inter in Milan that Empoli's players managed to keep a clean sheet in Serie A. Since then, they have conceded in each of the eight league matches. I believe that the team will concede at least one goal in their home match against Lecce.

Marco Baroni's team has failed to score in the last four consecutive rounds. However, they create opportunities and take shots on goal, but they just haven't been lucky enough to score. I think it's time for Lecce's players to end their goalless streak. They can at least score once against Empoli's defense. It should be noted that in the team's previous league matches, they faced much stronger opponents such as Napoli, Inter, Torino, and Fiorentina. By the way, before their dry defeats away to Milan and Fiorentina, Lecce's players had won two away matches: 2-1 against Atalanta and 2-0 against Cremonese.
Every streak, even the worst, eventually comes to an end. I bet that Lecce's players will end their goalless streak in this match. Both teams have been losing recently, but I think they will do everything in their power to finally win in this head-to-head match. Personally, I expect to see bright attacking football from both Baroni's and Dzanneti's teams. Most likely, we will see an exchange of goals. A bet on Over should win, but I will play it safe and predict a modest goal for the guests. Empoli has long been unable to keep their defense intact. In the previous three head-to-head matches against Lecce, the team conceded: 2-2, 2-1, and 1-1. In the first round of the current season and in the last head-to-head match on the opponent's field, the yellow-reds had already scored before halftime. My bet is on the guests to score. And for those who like bigger odds, Both teams to score is a good option.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
