The race to beat relegation battles could never have been real than for side Lecce in the 2019-20 Serie A campaign. The side has the chance to pick their struggling form at the Stadio Via del Mare against side Parma. The match schedules for Sunday with kickoff at 9.45 pm.
A 2-1 win over Udinese seemed like the light at the end of the tunnel for side Lecce. However, the side might still have to pull their game up on the last day of a season finale. The side is currently one point behind Genoa, who is above the dotted line. Other sides that will be looking to escape the relegation alongside the home team includes SPAL and Brescia.
Genoa will also have to pull their games up on the last day as they take on side Hellas Verona. Lecce will have to take advantage of the game to pull off any a surprise at home. Genoa has a better goal difference compared to Lecce.
