• AC Milan vs US Sassuolo Prediction: Serie A Match on 30.12.2023

Key Highlights

Atalanta have been in mixed form in recent matches. Their form in the last five matches exemplifies their inconsistency, winning twice and losing three times.

Impressive wins against Milan at home (3-2) and Salernitana at home (4-1) have been interspersed with losses against Napoli (1-2), Torino (3-0), and the 1-0 loss at Bologna last time out. 

Atalanta need to bolster their defensive shape heading into the clash against Lecce and enhance their ability to manage games, especially after taking leads, to bolster their chances in the clash.

Lecce have also been in mixed form, they have won once, drawn three times, and lost once in their last five matches in Serie A.

Lecce’s run of four consecutive draws ended with a victory at home to Frosinone. The draws included a 2-2 draw against Milan, 2-2 against Verona, 1-1 against Bologna, and 1-1 against Empoli. This run of results highlighted Lecce’s competitive streak while underscoring their lack of killer instinct to turn the draws into wins.

Lecce will look to bounce back from the 2-0 defeat they suffered at the San Siro against leaders Inter.
