Keep in mind that the prediction on the top of the page is our main tip. In case you are looking for more value picks, you can use our additional predictions below.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

After analysing how the bookmakers have priced this match between Sassuolo and Lecce, we see the total going under 2.5 goals.

We don't expect this match to have too many scoring opportunities, so there shouldn't be more than a couple of goals scored overall.

👉 Our prediction is: Lecce to win the 1st half

Lecce is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Sassuolo a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Lecce to win the first half.
