Como's performances have been impressive, currently sitting in 7th place in the league with a record of 6 wins, 6 draws, and 3 losses, just one point away from the European competition zone, and they are highly motivated to climb higher. They predominantly use a 4-2-3-1 passing formation, averaging 56% possession. Their defensive performance is particularly strong, conceding only 0.8 goals per game, ranking them as the third-best defensive team in Serie A. Midfield core Nico Pass is the engine of the team's attack, having contributed to 10 goals this season, and his creativity will be key for Como's offensive efforts away from home. Lecce is currently facing a significant wave of injuries and suspensions, impacting their squad depth. Midfield core Medon Berisha was injured in the previous match against Pisa and is expected to be out for a while. Also, Gabi Zaffi, Filip Malenkovski, and Balthazar Pierret are long-term absentees. Furthermore, Giunlucca Gaetano, Lameck Banda, and Ylber Ramadani will be unavailable due to their participation in the Africa Cup of Nations. The only positive is that Nikola Krstovic scored his debut goal in the last match as a substitute and is expected to start in this match, bringing new energy to the team's attack. Match Prediction: Lecce +0.75.
