Lecce and Genoa ended the Serie A Week 19 with a goalless draw on Sunday 5 January 2025 at the Via del Mare stadium in Lecce, Italy. The first half showcasing the most promising opportunities. Nikola Krstovic struck the post, while Morten Thorsby and Andrea Pinamonti both hit the crossbar in a single play. As it stands, Lecce finds itself in a precarious position, sitting third from the bottom with 17 points, while Genoa has a slightly better standing with 20 points. Lecce is inching closer to the relegation zone.
Looking ahead, the next matches feature Empoli facing Lecce and Genoa taking on Parma.
There was a minute of silence to honor Aldo Agroppi, who sadly passed away last Thursday.
