Lecce vs Juventus Prediction & Preview - Serie A
Lecce turned up at Udinese a week ago and won 3-0; Juventus have not won a Serie A match since 20 September. Which of those runs holds up is the only real question at the Stadio Via del Mare on Sunday, and the form on both sides points in awkward directions.
Lecce vs Juventus kicks off at 17:00 GMT on Sunday, 25 October 2026 in Serie A, with Eusebio Di Francesco's side at home in Lecce and Luciano Spalletti's Juventus travelling. Full fixture detail and the call sheet are on the Lecce vs Juventus match page.

Lecce have been either very good or very bad
The 3-0 at Udinese was comfortably Lecce's best afternoon of the run, and it came seven days after losing 1-2 at home to Bologna. That is the pattern. In their last six they have won 2 and lost 4, scoring seven and conceding 12, with no draws anywhere in the sequence.
Four of those six saw them concede two or more. Three of them they failed to score at all. Five of the six produced three goals or more in the game, which tells you Lecce matches rarely settle into anything tight.
At home, they have won one of three.
Juventus arrive without a league win since Atalanta
Eight points from six, with seven scored and eight conceded, reads tidier than Juventus's recent Sunday afternoons. The 2-0 home win over Atalanta on 20 September is still the most recent Serie A victory. Since then: a 1-1 draw at Cagliari, then a 0-3 home defeat by Lazio. Midweek brought a 2-2 draw with Stade Rennais in the Europa League, three days before this one.
The away record is the detail that matters here, and it is slim either way - one win from two on the road. Juventus have also conceded two or more only twice in six, which is a better defensive note than anything Lecce can point to.
They have already won at this ground recently. On 9 May 2026, 169 days before this match, Juventus took a 1-0 away from Lecce.
Spalletti travelled with a 20-man squad. Zeki Celik and Nico Gonzalez both picked up muscle injuries in the Stade Rennais draw and are out, as reported by Yahoo Sports, joining Kenan Yildiz, Khephren Thuram, Manuel Locatelli, Kamil Grabara, Jeff Ekhator, Francisco Conceicao and Arkadiusz Milik on the unavailable list per The Stats Zone, which also has Santiago Pierotti (ankle) and Lassana Coulibaly (thigh) out for Lecce, with Medon Berisha a fitness doubt.
Lecce vs Juventus prediction
Our prediction is a 2-1 away win for Juventus against Lecce in Serie A at the Stadio Via del Mare. Lecce have conceded two or more in four of their last six and have not drawn a single match in that run, so a flat afternoon is unlikely. Juventus have scored two or more in three of six and conceded two or more in only two, and they left here with a 1-0 in May. Lecce will get a goal - five of their last six games produced three or more.
Our prediction: Lecce 1-2 Juventus
