Lazio vs Lecce Prediction and Betting Tips | May 25th 2025
Lazio and Lecce draw the curtain on their 2024-25 Italian Serie A campaign when they lock horns at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday. While Marco Baroni’s men sit two points off the Champions League qualifying places, the visitors are level with 18th-placed Empoli in the relegation zone, making this weekend’s contest exciting.
Lazio dropped two huge points in their push for a top-four finish as they could only salvage a 2-2 stalemate against Inter Milan at San Siro last Sunday.
Baroni’s side have gone seven straight games without defeat across all competitions, claiming three wins and four draws since a 2-0 loss against Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League on April 10.
Lazio have picked up 65 points from their 37 Serie A matches so far to sit sixth in the league table, two points behind fourth-placed Juventus in the final Champions League qualifying spot.
Meanwhile, Lecce kept their hopes of beating the drop alive last weekend when they held their own to see out a 1-0 victory over Torino at the Via del Mare.
Before that, Marco Giampaolo’s men failed to taste victory in 13 straight games — losing eight and claiming five draws — a run which has put their top-flight status under threat.
With 31 points from 37 matches, Lecce are currently 17th in the Serie A table, level on points with 18th-placed Empoli in the first relegation spot.
