Lecce vs Como: Prediction, Head-to-Head, Odds & Stats (Sat, 27 Dec '25)

As anticipation builds for the Serie A showdown at Via del Mare, Italy, on Saturday, December 27, 2025, the focus remains firmly on Lecce versus Como. With a kick-off set to spark intrigue amongst football enthusiasts, one might wonder: who holds the upper hand going into this encounter?

Will Lecce’s determination tilt the scales back in their favor? Historically in their last three matches, Lecce managed one win against Como’s two victories, with no draws interrupting either side's momentum. The recent history between them might have Como feeling confident, especially after the convincing 3-0 triumph over Lecce on April 19, 2025, where Como conquered as the visiting team.

Upcoming performances will tell a compelling story. Lecce approaches this clash buoyed by a morale-boosting 1-0 victory against Pisa, whereas Como finds itself on the back foot after a narrow 0-1 loss to the formidable Roma. Currently standing at 14th in domestic rankings, Lecce hopes to climb the ladder, in contrast to their adversaries, Como, who occupy the 7th spot.

Individual brilliance can pivot outcomes, and indeed they have their star players under the spotlight. Lecce relies steadfastly on M. Berisha, their lead scorer this season with 2 goals. In juxtaposition, Como will be keenly aware of N. Paz, who has been instrumental in setting up plays with 5 assists, making him vital to their strategy.

How will player fitness and skill influence this face-off? Medon Berisha, Tiago Gabriel, and Wladimiro Falcone top the ratings for Lecce, scoring 7.20, 7.09, and 7.01 respectively. Meanwhile, Como boasts the prowess of Nico Paz (7.46), Jean Butez (7.31), and Jacobo Ramón (7.29), suggesting a slight upper hand in individual ratings.

Important metrics for this season underscore a possible tactical approach. Consider possession, wherein Lecce averages 45.27%, revealing a tendency of yielding control, unlike Como’s 59.87%, hinting at their dominion in ball retention. For set-pieces, Lecce’s average corners stand at 5.53 per match against Como’s 3.87 – could this be Lecce's edge tactically?

Discipline remains a crucial component. Lecce maintains a disciplined stance with 27 yellow cards and no reds, parallel to Como's more sizable tally of 35 yellows, which could become a talking point if the game gets tense. Equally interesting is the clean slate both teams share concerning penalty goals conceded, hinting at robust defenses.

As things stand, Vamos Como! Their blend of flair in attack, tactical supremacy in possession, combined with strong player performances and confidence from past meetings, positions them as favorites to claim victory. However, with Lecce’s drive and strategic tenacity, surprises could be waiting on the field. Analysis of the current form is key; who will write the next chapter in this rivalry?
