Bodo Glimt had 8 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. Sondre Fet (20'), Jens Petter Hauge (61') and Kasper Høgh (64') scored for Bodo Glimt.

Over that same period, their forwards have scored 14. We will find out whether or not that trend will end up being continued on into this next match.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Inter Milan:

• remain undefeated by Lecce in away games against them for the last 4 league matches. A solid away record against them.

Delving into past results between these clubs going back to 05/03/2023 tells us that these encounters have been pretty painful for Lecce. They’ve not been able to get any wins whatsoever whereas Inter Milan have managed to find a way, getting wins in 100 per cent of those games where they have faced each other.

A combined total of 15 goals were produced between them in this period, with 0 of them for Giallorossi and 15 for Nerazzurri. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.5.

📋 Team News: Lecce

It’s our opinion that Giallorossi will possibly kick off with a 4-3-3 formation for the game, beginning the first half with Wladimiro Falcone, Danilo Veiga, Kialonda Gaspar, Tiago Gabriel, Antonino Gallo, Lassana Coulibaly, Ylber Ramadani, Omri Gandelman, Santiago Pierotti, Walid Cheddira and Riccardo Sottil.

ℹ️ Team News: Inter Milan

Inter Milan boss Cristian Chivu has multiple availability issues to deal with. Denzel Dumfries (Ankle surgery) and Lautaro Martínez (Muscle injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet. The players who will not be able to play in this game through being suspended are Nicolò Barella and Hakan Çalhanoğlu.

We believe Nerazzurri seem most likely to elect for a 3-5-2 lineup using Yann Sommer, Yann Aurel Bisseck, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni, Luis Henrique, Davide Frattesi, Piotr Zielinski, Petar Sucic, Federico Dimarco, Marcus Thuram and F. Pio Esposito.

💡 Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Lecce will surely be able to score a goal against this Inter Milan outfit, but one goal probably won’t quite prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’ve gone for a 1-2 victory for Inter Milan when the full-time whistle blows. It really should be an interesting one.
