Napoli will be hoping to extend their stay at the top of Serie A on Tuesday night and will travel to Puglia to take on Lecce.
The reigning Italian champions, who showed instant reaction when they stormed to a sensational 3-1 win against Inter Milan at the weekend, will be smelling a golden opportunity when they travel to the Stadio Via del Mare.
The Giallorossi may have finally managed to maintain their top-flight status last season, but Lecce have struggled mightily this time as well, and the hosts will be prepared for some tough scrutiny here on Tuesday.
With two sides already languishing at opposite ends of the Serie A table, we’ve taken a look at some of the most attractive Lecce vs Napoli bet builder tips.
Great opportunity for Conte’s team
Napoli returned to Stadio Diego Armando Maradona under heavy pressure after suffering a 6-2 defeat to Dutch giants PSV in the Champions League last week.
However, despite some early struggles on their return from the October international break, Antonio Conte’s side somehow came roaring back at the weekend.
Tuesday’s hosts will be dreaming of a repeat of their dominant performance in Napoli, en route to a 3-1 victory over historic rivals Inter Milan.
Conte’s defending Italian champions, who sit top of the Serie A table and open their midweek fixtures, will be desperate to widen their buffer against the chasing pack in Puglia.
It should also be highlighted that the former Tottenham manager last visited the Stadio Via del Mare on May 3rd, watching his team win 1-0.

McTominay goes from strength to strength
Scott McTominay’s staggering £27.5m move to Napoli last summer may have raised many eyebrows across Europe, but the former Manchester United star enjoyed an historic start to life in Italy.
The Scotland international, who spearheaded Napoli’s historic title win last season, has already cemented his status as a modern-day icon at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
McTominay, who finished in an incredible 18th place at last month’s Ballon d’Or ceremony, continued to shine once again this season.
After scoring a superb goal against Inter Milan, the 28-year-old also scored twice in the Champions League, away to PSV last week.
Similarly, McTominay, who was on the scoresheet for Scotland in their 2-1 win over Belarus earlier this month, has scored four goals in his last three appearances for club and country.

Another long night for Lecce
Lecce may have made a surprising run last season, successfully retaining their Serie A status, but the Salentians are once again in for a serious fight this time around.
Despite losing 3-2 to Udinese at the end last weekend, the hosts on Tuesday have only six points and are seen as prominent relegation candidates.
Eusebio Di Francesco’s side have won just one of their first nine games against top-flight opponents, but will be bracing themselves for another monumental challenge.
On 23 September, Lecce also gained a reputation for long-term challenges at home, seeing their Coppa Italia adventure come to a routine end with a 3-0 loss against AC Milan.
In fact, the former Roma manager has amazingly witnessed his team’s only clean sheet in Serie A in front of their supporters so far this year.
