- Competition: Serie A
- Date: Friday, 21st February 2025
- Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
- Venue: Stadio Via del Mare (Lecce)
The 2024/25 could be the third season in which Lecce are one of the main candidates for relegation to Serie B, but to survive and stay in the strongest Italian league. Lecce are currently five points above the drop zone. Marco Giampaolo's team are playing well lately, as they are on the run of three games without defeat. Last weekend, Lecce played 0-0 on the road against Monza. The guests were closer to a win, but that time, their inefficiency cost them two more points.
Udinese have been perfectly balanced into a mid-table for more than a decade. Right now, they are 10th on the table, and it doesn't seem that they will move significantly on the standing until the season ends. Like Lecce, the Udinese are on a run of three games without defeat. In the last match, they won 3-0 at home vs Empoli. According to the statistics, there weren't big differences between the two sides, but the Udinese still secured another victory.
Lecce vs Udinese pick: Under 2.5 goals
In the first part of the season, Udinese won 1-0 at home against Lecce. Interestingly, the last five h2h matches between Lecce and Udinese finished with two or fewer goals. Another low-scoring game we should see on Friday night at Stadio Via del Mare.

Lecce team news
Lecce will have an almost full squad for the upcoming tie against Udinese. Lameck Banda and Filip Marchwinski are injured and will skip the game, while Joan Gonzalez might heal in time. Gonzalez missed all matches in the 2024/25 season so far, so even if he recovers, we shouldn't expect him to start.

Udinese team news
Udinese doesn't have big injury problems, either. They will be without Souleymane Toure, Maduks Okoye, and Keinan Davis on Friday night. We should expect the head coach, Kosta Runjaic, to field the same starting lineup that trashed Empoli last week.
