Lecce Faces Napoli in Crucial Serie A Match Tonight

MILANO, Italy – Lecce will host Napoli tonight at 6:30 PM local time in a pivotal Serie A matchup. Both teams enter the game with contrasting performances from their last outings.

Napoli arrives in Puglia following a strong home victory against Udinese, boosting their position at the top of the league. However, they will be without star player Kevin De Bruyne, who sustained an injury in their previous match against Inter Milan.

On the other hand, Lecce is looking to rebound after a disappointing 3-2 defeat against Udinese. They need points to move away from the relegation zone, making this match crucial for their season.

Official lineups show that Lecce will employ a 4-3-3 formation, featuring goalkeeper Jeremiah Falcone and a forward trio of Pierotti, Camarda, and Banda. Coach Eusebio Di Francesco hopes to capitalize on home advantage with this lineup.

Napoli will also go with a 4-3-3 setup, led by goalkeeper Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. Defenders Di Lorenzo and Juan Jesus will be key in protecting their goal, while Politano, Lucca, and Lang aim to find the net. Coach Antonio Conte has made adjustments to the starting lineup to manage player fatigue.

The last time these teams met at Via del Mare, Napoli secured a 1-0 victory in May 2025, increasing the pressure on Lecce to turn their fortunes around in this encounter.

The match will be broadcast live on DAZN, allowing fans to follow the action as it unfolds.
