In a critical Serie A matchup, Pisa and Lecce face each other as both teams aim to escape relegation. Pisa, struggling with a faltering defense, need a win to maintain any hope of staying up, while Lecce, just above the drop zone, might settle for a draw given their weak attack. Pisa's last two home matches were wins to nil, but their overall form is concerning. Lecce, despite recent struggles, have been tough defensively. The game is likely to end in a draw.

Pisa are on the verge of relegation and Lecce are fighting for survival in Serie A. Lecce have won once on the road since December and could be content with a point.

HTH


Little has separated these clubs over the years, Lecce leading Pisa 15-13 alongside eight draws.

Pisa Set for Relegation


Pisa have been destined for relegation all season long and it could be confirmed this weekend.

Oscar Hiljemark replaced Alberto Gilardino as manager in February, winning one of 11 games in charge.

The promoted club have lost five straight games and scored just one goal in that run. Pisa lost 1-0 at Parma last time out, Ebenezer Akinsanmiro and Filip Stojilkovic hitting the woodwork.

Lecce Battling the Drop


Lecce recently lost four straight matches to drop into the relegation zone. Two draws has seen them climb one point above Cremonese with four games remaining.

Eusebio Di Francesco’s side had 14-5 shots in a 1-1 draw against Fiorentina, ending with 1.26-1.14 xG.

The southern club drew 0-0 at Verona on Saturday, a contest containing few chances. 

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Pisa (3-5-2) Adrian Semper; Simone Canestrelli, Antonio Caracciolo, Rosen Bozhinov; Mehdi Leris, Isak Vural, Ebenezer Akinsanmiro, Michel Aebischer, Samuele Angori; Stefano Moreo, Filip Stojilkovic

Matteo Tramoni and Rafiu Durosinmi are battling muscular problems.

Lecce (3-4-2-1) Wladimiro Falcone; Danilo Veiga, Jamil Siebert, Tiago Gabriel, Antonino Gallo; Ylber Ramadani, Oumar Ngom; Santiago Pierotti, Lassana Coulibaly, Konan N’Dri; Walid Cheddira

Tiago Gabriel returns from suspension and should reclaim his spot in central defence with Gaby Jean to make way. Gaspar, Sadik Fofana, Medon Berisha and Riccardo Sottil are injured.

Verdict

Pisa have the worst defence in Serie A and it’s a matter of when, not if, they are relegated. Lecce have the weakest attack in the competition, a draw on the cards in Italy.
