Lecce

Eusebio Di Francesco is expected to restore Tiago Gabriel to the back line for Bologna's visit, with the centre-back returning after missing the defeat at Milan. Kialonda Gaspar is the alternative for that position, while Jamil Siebert is expected to keep his place alongside either player.

Further forward, Santiago Pierotti remains first choice on the right, having started four of the last five matches and made way between the 72nd and 90th minute each time. Ivan Ilić is expected to continue on the left of midfield, while Willem Geubbels and Nikola Štulić are the two options in attack.

Bologna

Bologna will again be without Emil Holm and Jens Odgaard, both sidelined with thigh injuries, for the trip to Lecce. New signing Matteo Darmian has joined the squad in time to travel.

Riccardo Orsolini has recovered from injury and is pushing Nicolò Cambiaghi for a place out wide, while head coach Raffaele Palladino also faces a choice in midfield between Tommaso Pobega and Nikola Moro. Federico Bernardeschi is available after returning to partial team training this week and is expected to start again further forward.
