Lecce vs Juventus: Serie A Match Preview

Match Context

Lecce host Juventus at Stadio Via del Mare in Lecce on 2026-05-09. The Serie A clash comes in Regular Season - 36, with Lecce sitting 17th on 32 points and Juventus 4th on 65 points, chasing Champions League qualification.

Lecce Availability

Lecce have several concerns.

• M. Berisha (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.
• S. Fofana (Inactive) is sidelined.
• K. Gaspar (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
• R. Sottil (Back Injury) is doubtful.

All four are drawn from the current Lecce squad list, removing options in both midfield and attack on a day when the 24 goals scored in 35 league matches underline their limited attacking margin for error.

Juventus Availability

Juventus also face notable absences.

• A. Milik (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
• J. Cabal (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

However, key attacking leader K. Yıldız, with 10 goals and 6 assists in Serie A, is available, as are fellow creators W. McKennie (5 goals, 5 assists) and J. David (6 goals, 4 assists).

Impact Summary

Lecce lose depth but no listed league top scorer, further stretching a side with just 24 goals from 35 games. Juventus, by contrast, retain almost all of their primary attacking output, including K. Yıldız, so their forward threat remains largely intact despite Milik being sidelined.
