Two out-of-sorts sides meet at the Dacia Arena, with Udinese hunting a first home win of the Serie A season and Lecce arriving in equally poor shape, in a Sunday lunchtime game short on form on both sides.
Anthony Eadson’s Udinese vs Lecce predictions, best bets and score prediction are all below, with kick-off at 11.30am (UK time) on Sunday.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects a tight game between two struggling sides, and has looked to a level finish with goals.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Jurgen Ekkelenkamp to score anytime | 11/4 (bet365) | Ekkelenkamp has been the one consistent threat in a struggling Udinese side, weighing in with three goals and an assist already and playing every minute this season. Even with the team on a four-game losing run, he remains their most likely source of a goal, and against a Lecce defence that has leaked 12 goals and been beaten at home last time out, the chances should be there. At 11/4 for the midfielder to get on the scoresheet, it rates as a fair price on Udinese’s main man. |
| Draw and both teams to score | 18/5 (William Hill) | There is little between these two. Udinese have lost their last four but Lecce are hardly flying either, beaten at home by Bologna last time out, and both defences have been generous, conceding 13 and 12 goals respectively. Neither keeps many clean sheets, yet both can nick a goal, and head-to-heads here have produced 3-2 and 2-1 scorelines. Udinese have conceded in every home game and Lecce have found the net in half of their matches, so goals at both ends are on the cards. A score draw at 18/5 makes plenty of sense between two sides who cancel each other out. |

How Udinese go into the game
Udinese sit 15th on four points, with just one win from six and a leaky defence that has conceded 13 times. They have lost their last four matches, most recently going down 2-1 at Torino.
They are also still waiting for a first home win, drawing one and losing two on their own ground while scoring only twice there. Jurgen Ekkelenkamp has been their most reliable outlet, chipping in with three goals and an assist from midfield while playing every minute.
How Lecce go into the game
Lecce are a place and two points above their hosts in 13th, but they arrive in poor touch, beaten 2-1 at home by Bologna last time out. They have won twice but lost four, with 12 goals conceded and three blanks already.
On the road they have taken one win from three, losing the other two, and they have scored just twice away from home. They have been shut out in three of their six games overall, so goals have been hard to come by.

Udinese vs Lecce score prediction
With Udinese winless at home and Lecce poor on the road, neither looks capable of taking control. A tight game with a goal apiece feels the likeliest outcome. Score prediction: Udinese 1-1 Lecce.
