View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The stronger signal points to BTTS - No, as Cittadella have kept a clean sheet in 100% of their matches at home so far and have conceded an average of 0.0 goals. Lecco average 1.0 goal scored away from home, but have failed to score in 67% of such matches, while their last five outings have produced just 0.8 goals per game. The seasonal BTTS rate is only 0% for Cittadella and 33% for Lecco, well below the league average of 50%. The hosts are in excellent form, having won five consecutive matches, scoring 11 goals and conceding only 3 during this run, which increases the likelihood that at least Lecco will fail to score. The visitors’ attacking potential, reflected in an xG of 1.48 and 5.33 shots on target per match, limits confidence in the pick, but Cittadella’s defensive advantage still favors a No Goal scenario for at least one side.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Cittadella are in excellent form, winning their last five matches and averaging 2.2 goals scored, while conceding just 0.6 goals per game. Lecco have also conceded only 0.6 goals per match across their last five outings, while averaging just 0.8 goals scored. The hosts’ season data strongly supports a cautious scenario: they have kept a clean sheet in 100% of their matches, and every one of their games has finished Under 2.5 goals. Cittadella’s attacking potential, reflected in an xG of 1.97 over their last five matches, should give them the edge, but the solid defensive performances of both sides limit the prospect of four goals. Therefore, the safest signal is Under 3.5 goals, especially since only 20% of Lecco’s recent matches have gone Over 2.5 goals.

HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Cittadella are in outstanding form, having won their last five matches while averaging 2.2 goals scored and conceding just 0.6 per game.

In addition, Cittadella average 15 shots compared with Lecco’s 12.33, while their xG stands at 1.63 versus the opponents’ 1.48. Therefore, the most likely HT/FT outcome is 1/1, with the hosts taking the lead at the break and maintaining their victory until full-time.
