Match Insights: Roma

Roma have won eight of their last nine Serie A meetings against Lecce (scoring 2.4 goals per match on average) – they lost the remaining one 4-2 on April 7th, 2012.

Roma could win three Serie A matches against promoted sides within the first 10 match-days in a season for the third time in their history, after 1997/98 and 2004/05 (in five meetings).

Roma have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last four Serie A games, after not conceding in four of their previous five – they last conceded in five matches in a row in the competition in February 2021.

Match Insights: Lecce

After having won their very first Serie A away meeting against Roma (3-2 on April 20th, 1986), Lecce have failed to win each of the following 15 such matches against the Giallorossi (D2 L13).

Lecce have drawn four of their first eight Serie A seasonal games for the first time in their history; they have drawn four of their last six league games (W1 L1), as many as in their previous 29 matches in the competition (including their previous appearance).

Lecce are the only side yet to score in the opening 30 minutes of play in Serie A this season – however, they have scored four goals in the 15 minutes before half-time, fewer only than Napoli (six).

Roma vs Lecce: Players to Watch

Lecce are the only side which Paulo Dybala has faced more than once and scored in every game in Serie A (two goals in two meetings); the Roma striker has found the net in his last two league matches and he could do it in three in a row in the competition for the first time since July 2020, when he scored in five in a row (the third one against Lecce).

Gabriel Strefezza has scored in his last two league games: the last Lecce player to find the net in at least three Serie A appearances in a row before turning 26 was Luis Muriel, back in 2012.
