Juventus take on the visitors Lecce in the round 6 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Tuesday, September 26th at Allianz Stadium (Turin).
The Old Lady are undoubtedly one of the strongest clubs in the country. Yes, there has been a decline in recent seasons, but Allegri seems to be bringing some order back. They may not have been competing for the Scudetto, but they certainly secured a place in the top 4 of Serie A. However, once again, the ambitious team's management has been caught in violations, not for the first time. These violations were so serious that they were initially penalized 10 points by the national football authorities, and then UEFA barred them from European competitions altogether. It's not surprising that several players were removed from the squad, including Bonucci, the captain who almost took legal action but eventually left for Union Berlin. Despite all this (you can add Pogba's doping issue, but that's what brought him back to the spotlight), the black and white team had a decent start. They had only drawn with Bologna, but they won the rest of their matches. However, in the last round, things didn't go well as they lost 2-4 at home to Sassuolo.

Lecce are in its second consecutive season in Serie A but with a new coach. The Yellow and Reds are quite well known to fans of Italian football. However, they haven't shown anything significant, and in their previous stint in Serie A, they were relegated after just one year. The recent revival happened under Baroni, and unlike his predecessors, Marco managed to successfully secure their survival in Serie A. However, this required only 36 points in 38 matches – for comparison, in La Liga, Valladolid was relegated with 40 points! Marco moved to Verona in the summer, but he was replaced by Roberto d'Aversa, known for his time at Parma, although he had an unsuccessful return there and a failure at Sampdoria. But in his new position, this specialist had a good start, with an undefeated streak. They alternated between home victories (against Como in the cup, Lazio, and Salernitana) and away draws (with Fiorentina and Monza). The fairy tale continued against Genoa, as they defeated them 1-0.
The Old Lady have not lost in 6 consecutive head-to-head matches and has won all 3 recent matches against Gialorossi. The Yellow and Reds have performed well, but they might not be desperate for a win in Turin, as they are already doing a good job. However, the Bianconeri need to make up for their failure against Neroverdi. Let's bet that the hosts will win in Turin with a handicap of -1.0 goals.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with -1.0 handicap.
