On Sunday afternoon, Spezia hosts Leece at the Stadio Alberto Picco as the visitors look to continue a promising recent run of form in Serie A.
The home side is in 17th place in the Serie A table, but they are also five points above the relegation zone. Luca Gotti’s team has won just one of their previous nine matches in the Italian top flight.

However, a 2-2 draw against Atalanta means that Spezia are now unbeaten in their last three league games. They threw away a two-goal lead in the Atalanta game, with the Nerazzurri scoring two goals in the previous 13 minutes to rescue a point.
The result last time out means that Spezia’s previous five matches in Serie A have seen both teams score.
Spezia has an inconsistent recent home record in Serie A, as they have won once in their last seven home matches in the Italian top flight but also lost just once in the run of games, drawing on five occasions.
The visitors are in 12th place in the Serie A table but are just four points clear of Spezia.
Marco Baroni’s team have hit a promising recent run of form in the Italian top flight, as they are unbeaten in four league games. A 2-1 win over Lazio last time out also means that Lecce has won their previous three matches in Serie A.
Lecce have a mixed recent away record in the Italian top-flight, as they have won just once in their last four league matches on their travels.
However, a 2-0 win at Sampdoria in their previous away game ended a three-match winless away run for the visitors.
Forebet predicts that these two teams will play out a close encounter, which will ultimately end in a low-scoring draw.
