✅ Stats before the game: Lecce have won nine of the 31 matches against Fiorentina in Serie A (11N, 11L), only against Udinese (11) have the Giallorossi achieved more successes in the top flight. Lecce and Fiorentina drew the first leg 2-2 on August 27th, only once have the two teams drawn both matches in a single Serie A season: in 1988/89, Carlo was at the helm of the Salento team Mazzone while the Viola coach was Sven-Göran Eriksson. Fiorentina have remained unbeaten in their last three away games against Lecce in Serie A (W2, D1), the Viola have never recorded four away matches without defeat against the Salento team in the tournament. Lecce have gained just one point in their last six league matches, losing all three of the most recent ones – the Giallorossi have not lost consecutive matches in Serie A since the period between February and April (six in that case). Fiorentina did not win any of the first five matches of 2024 in all competitions (2N, 3L), in the previous 20 calendar years only in 2013 had the Viola not achieved any success in the first five matches. The last time Fiorentina did not record victories in the first six matches of a single calendar year across all competitions dates back to 2002.
