Two of Serie A‘s early strugglers go looking for a lift when Lecce host Genoa at the Stadio Via del Mare on Sunday 1 November at 5.00pm (UK time), both sides keen to build a cushion above the bottom three.
Our Lecce vs Genoa predictions and betting tips centre on a Serie A fixture between two sides who have found goals hard to come by, a meeting that has produced precious few of them down the years.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has sifted through the Lecce vs Genoa odds and settled on two bets for a game that promises few goals.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Over 8.5 corners | 17/20 (Paddy Power) | This has the look of a scrappy, territorial battle rather than a goal fest, and that often means plenty of corners. Lecce will have to chase the game at home, where they have struggled to break teams down, while Genoa defend deep and hack their lines clear under pressure. Both approaches tend to pile up set pieces, and with neither side comfortable in possession, the flag count should tick along nicely. At 17/20 with Paddy Power, over 8.5 corners looks the percentage play in a cagey contest. |
| Genoa to win to nil | 14/5 (William Hill) | Genoa have quietly become hard to beat, keeping clean sheets in their last two games as they saw off Venezia and Juventus. Now they face a Lecce side that has mustered just four goals at home all season and been shut out in half of its league games. The visitors’ own away record is poor, but this is the ideal opponent to fix that, and if they nose in front, Lecce have shown little sign they can respond. At 14/5 with William Hill, Genoa to win to nil is the value call. |

How Lecce go into the game
Lecce were beaten 2-0 at home by Juventus last time out, a result that summed up a difficult season in front of their own fans. They have won just once in four at the Via del Mare and conceded 10 there, one of the leakier home records in the division. Lassana Coulibaly and Tiago Gabriel are joint top scorers on two apiece, which tells its own story about where the goals are coming from.
Oddly, two of their three league wins have come away from home. They have also failed to score in four of their eight games, a habit that simply has to change. Survival may hinge on rediscovering some bite at the Via del Mare, yet recent weeks offer little encouragement.
How Genoa go into the game
Genoa head to Puglia in far better spirits, having beaten Juventus 2-0 at home last time out. That was a third win in five, with back-to-back home victories over Venezia and Juventus lifting the mood. Milutin Osmajic leads their scoring on three, and the recent clean sheets will give them real belief.
The caveat is stark, though, because Genoa have yet to win on the road this season. All three away trips have ended in defeat, and they have scored just one and conceded five on their travels. A fragile Lecce at home is the obvious opening, but the Rossoblu must break that habit to take advantage.

Lecce vs Genoa head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24/05/26 | Lecce | 1-0 | Genoa |
| 23/08/25 | Genoa | 0-0 | Lecce |
| 14/03/25 | Genoa | 2-1 | Lecce |
| 05/01/25 | Lecce | 0-0 | Genoa |
| 28/01/24 | Genoa | 2-1 | Lecce |
Recent meetings between these two have been cagey, low-scoring affairs, and Genoa shade the head-to-head with three wins to Lecce’s two across the last eight. Two of the last five finished goalless, and Genoa won two of their three home meetings in that run, though Lecce edged the most recent clash 1-0.
Lecce vs Genoa predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 8.5 corners | 17/20 (Paddy Power) | ⭐⭐⭐ | This has the look of a scrappy, territorial battle rather than a goal fest, and that often means plenty of corners. |
| Genoa to win to nil | 14/5 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Genoa have quietly become hard to beat, keeping clean sheets in their last two games as they saw off Venezia and Juventus. |
| Genoa to win | 29/20 (Coral) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Genoa have won three of their last five, while Lecce have claimed just one home win all season. |
| Both teams to score – No | 4/5 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Lecce have been blanked in four of eight games and Genoa have scored just once in three away, so a clean sheet looks likely somewhere. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 4/7 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Three of the last five meetings between these sides produced two goals or fewer, and neither attack is firing. |
| Genoa to win 1-0 | 6/1 (BoyleSports) | ⭐⭐ | A single goal could settle a tight contest between Lecce and Genoa, with the visitors’ back-to-back shutouts making a narrow win realistic. |
Lecce vs Genoa score prediction
A low-scoring game looks the likeliest outcome here. Genoa carry the better form and a meaner recent defence, while Lecce’s struggles at home give the visitors a genuine chance to end their road wait. Expect a tight Genoa win. Score prediction: Lecce 0-1 Genoa.
