The returnees in Serie A had their first match on their arena and sat for a long time on the tied score with Inter. But Lecce didn't hold out just a little bit and allowed the powerful Nerazzurri to pull out a victory in the 5th extra minute - 1:2. In the second round, Lecce had a much easier opponent - Sassuolo. However, Marco Baroni's team played on the roadю As a result they failed to find an approach to the opponent's goal and although they conceded just once, they lost again. 0:1 - Lecce starts the season with two defeats. 

Under the new coach Paolo Zanetti, Empoli has changed their style to a more defensive one. It immediately paid off, but so far only in terms of defense. In the first round, the Blues failed to cope on the road against Spezia, conceding only once, but losing 0:1. On the second matchday they looked decent at home against tired Fiorentina, but could not break the gates of the Violets. 0:0 - Empoli has only 1 point after 2 rounds without a single goal.

As the match against Sassuolo showed, Lecce is not yet fully ready for Serie A - against a problematic opponent, the Yellow and Reds could not play offensively. It will not be easy for Marco Baroni's team to overcome Empoli. The Blues left an excellent impression in the first rounds, especially their defense. A draw is quite likely in the upcoming game. And there will be nothing surprising if the opponents score no goals. The prediction is a draw.
