Cagliari, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Cagliari supremo Claudio Ranieri after sustaining a heavy 3-0 away loss to Genoa. In that game they had 36% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Genoa who had 12 attempts and 5 on target.
Ranieri will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Playing at home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 8 games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
Lecce, Recent FormA 1-1 draw and a point gained against Monza in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Lecce last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Monza had 9 shots on goal with 1 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 4 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. So far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 28 of their 34 games.
With an unbeaten league tally of 5 games from 6, their recent form should be viewed positively, especially with 3 wins thrown in. Winning away from home has been a bit of a problem for them this season having only managed to win 2 of their 17 league games on the road.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Playing at home, Cagliari have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Lecce.
This match has run out a draw on the previous 3 encounters between these sides in the league; however, Cagliari may have a slight edge with them currently enjoying a 3 match unbeaten streak against their opponents.
Cagliari manager Claudio Ranieri has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Marco Mancosu (Knee), Leonardo Pavoletti (Foot) and Nicolas Viola (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With both Lameck Banda (Knee surgery) and Kastriot Dermaku (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and Mohamed Kaba (Knee) and Ylber Ramadani (Physical discomfort) unavailable in the shorter term, Lecce manager Luca Gotti will be relieved to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
