Lecce’s squad have received a potential boost as Filip Marchwinski resumes full training following an injury layoff, ahead of their game against Genoa this afternoon. However, the team still faces several absences, with Mergim Berisha nursing a thigh issue and both Lameck Banda and Kialonda Gaspar confirmed unavailable.
The return of Frederic Guilbert from suspension offers tactical flexibility, potentially allowing Patrick Dorgu to move into a more attacking role on the right flank. Dorgu has been in fine form this season, netting three Serie A goals, just one behind the team’s top scorer Nikola Krstovic.
Genoa’s offensive threat is led by Andrea Pinamonti, who currently leads the team with six goals in the league campaign. Mario Balotelli, having recovered from a recent illness that kept him out of last week’s match, is expected to be available as a substitute option for the visitors.
However, Genoa’s squad depth is tested with several key absences. Caleb Ekuban, Brooke Norton-Cuffy, Alan Matturro, Junior Messias, and Ruslan Malinovskyi are all sidelined for the upcoming fixture. Despite these setbacks, manager Patrick Vieira is likely to maintain a consistent lineup, with Stefano Sabelli stepping in at right-back to cover for the absent Norton-Cuffy.
Lecce (4-3-3): Falcone; Guilbert, Baschirotto, Jean, Gallo; Coulibaly, Ramadani, Rafia; Dorgu, Krstovic, Morente
Genoa (4-2-3-1): Leali; Sabelli, Bani, Vasquez, Martin; Frendrup, Badelj; Zanoli, Thorsby, Vitinha; Pinamonti
