Lecce vs Roma Prediction 29 March 2025
🔊 Will the upcoming match be a successful one for Roma? With 18 points out of a possible 18, Claudio Ranieri's side have hit a perfect streak in Serie A. Their current form turns the race for a top-four finish from a dream into a tangible goal. It seems the "Giallorossi" coaching staff have found the formula to maximize each player's potential. However, Lecce, who have suffered four consecutive defeats, will be eager to break out of their slump. Here's our prediction for the 30th round clash at the "Via del Mare".
Head-to-Head
Lecce haven't been able to defeat Roma for quite some time, with their last victory dating back to 2012. In the last seven encounters, the "Giallorossi" have come out on top five times, while the other two matches ended in draws. The first-round match ended 4-1, even though Roma were far from their best form at that time.
Head-to-head statistics Lecce - Roma
Lecce Team Overview
Lecce have been struggling to secure a win, earning only 2 points in their last 6 matches since early February. Their recent run includes a string of four consecutive defeats, with the most painful being the collapse against AC Milan. The Salentini were leading 2-0 by the 68th minute but somehow managed to lose 3-2. In the previous round, Marco Giampaolo's side also failed to deliver an effective performance against a not-so-formidable Genoa, falling 2-1.
Lecce currently sit 16th in the Serie A standings, but their cushion from the relegation zone is minimal-just one victory separates them. The team is not facing significant injury issues, with only two long-term absentees in the treatment room.

Roma Team Overview
Roma have been on an impressive run recently, securing 7 wins in their last 8 matches. However, their sole defeat proved costly-they fell to Athletic Bilbao 3-1 after an early red card, leading to their exit from the Europa League. On the brighter side, their Serie A campaign is looking strong. A narrow 1-0 victory over Cagliari in the previous round propelled them to 7th place, reducing the gap to the top four to just four points.
Nevertheless, the team is currently facing significant squad issues: the participation of five players is in doubt, including Paulo Dybala (substituted back in the match against Cagliari due to injury), Devyne Rensch (suffering from a thigh injury), and Manu Koné (who was substituted due to injury during international duty with France and Croatia).

⚽ Goal Prediction
Roma are not struggling to find the back of the net. The last time Ranieri's side failed to score was at the end of January, when they lost to AZ Alkmaar (0-1). In 4 of their last 7 matches, the Romans have scored at least 2 goals. Considering Lecce's current form, an individual total for Roma over 1.5 goals seems a reasonable option.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Lecce remain among the worst teams in Serie A for corners taken. As of the 29th round, they average 4.0 corners per game, with only Venezia (3.7) and Monza (3.5) faring worse. Roma aren't far ahead, averaging 4.4 corners per match. Given these stats, a total corners under 9.5 bet could be insightful.
Editorial Prediction
According to the bookmakers, Roma are the favorites in this matchup. Even against teams of similar caliber, Lecce struggle significantly. The "Salentians" have scored the fewest goals (21) and are among the worst for goals conceded (48). Ranieri's squad are currently on an upswing, and the chance to finish in the top four provides them with extra motivation. We're opting for a straightforward bet on a Roma victory. We anticipate a final score of 0-2.
