Inter Milan vs Lecce
Italian Serie A
Date: 5 March 2023, Sunday
Kick-off at 17:00 UK / 18:00 CET
Venue: Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (Milano).
Inter Milan continued their rollercoaster campaign in this term of Serie A by falling 1-0 away at Bologna last weekend.
We can thus say that Simone Inzaghi’s men officially gave up the battle for the title as leaders Napoli are now 18 points away at the top of the standings.
I Nerrazzurri still have a lot to play for while being only three points above fifth-placed Roma. The top four finish is an imperative for Inzaghi and the former Lazio forward will desperately want his men to bounce back on Sunday in the home fixture against Lecce.
Inter Milan are the favorites on Sunday afternoon t Stadio Giuseppe Meazza but we struggle to see the value in backing them at the 1.36 odds knowing about their hot-and-cold form throughout the whole season.
Lecce will also enter the game off of a 0-1 defeat in the previous round but they had also been on a run of three straight league games without a defeat beforehand.
Also, Marco Baroni’s troops registered 16 shots towards Sassuolo’s goal last Saturday, none of which went on target, though.

- Inter Milan have been the dominant force in the history of this matchup, especially in the games at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza where they won 11 of the last 12 meetings with Lecce.

Inter Milan vs Lecce Prediction
Inter Milan have scored more than one goal just once in the previous six games in all competitions. Lecce are on a run of two straight away wins in the Serie A. We will back the visitors to win in +1.5 Asian Handicap at the odds of 1.80.
Just one of Inter’s last six games saw three or more goals and only one of Lecce’s last four Serie A matches brought such a scenario. We will take the 2.00 odds for the Under 2.5 goals FT pick.
